Description
Being an aromatherapist is much more than knowing about the history, chemistry, physics, and healing properties of essential oils. To be successful, you need to know about the world of business ownership. How to Succeed in the Business of Aromatherapy is a collaboration between Linda Lee Smith and Debra Reis, both international experts in the practice of aromatherapy. Both authors teach clinical aromatherapy in the U.S. and Australia and Deb has brought the program to Singapore while Linda early on taught in Canada. This has added to their vast knowledge of how aromatherapy is practiced throughout the world and what future is out there for practicing the art and science of aromatherapy. There are legal issues to grapple with and safety issues that if violated could land you in legal jeopardy. Rules on language have tightened and if you hold a license in another profession, could get you into deep trouble. But remember, every business starts with a dream or an idea. You draft your vision and how you can contribute to the good of the world. You identify your core business matched with your core competencies. Then you “niche” down your target audience until you figure out just who and what your aromatherapy practice is all about. This guide is there for you clearly mapping out a successful path wherever you are in the world. It will give you not only the “heart” issues to consider but also the step-by-step instructions on how to get started as a professional clinical aromatherapist
