Community chat: 3 networking groups for nail pros

Are you seeking support from fellow nail techs? Do you want access to hundreds of tutorials to inspire your creativity? Do you have questions but don’t know who to ask? The answer might lie in joining a nail networking group. Here’s three to have a look at…

The Nail Tech Org

With an impressive 83,000 Instagram followers, The Nail Tech Org is ‘home to nail techs building profitable and powerful businesses’. It offers accredited courses and bookable mentoring sessions, which can be purchased whether a member or not. However, the brand is most known for its members club.

Member, Gabrielle Large, says: “I work so hard, and long hours, while still managing to cook myself good meals, train, go to yoga, meditate, journal and look after myself. Without the community, my business, self-belief and routine would look very different.”

With the membership, you gain access to over 300 nail art tutorials, weekly live classes ranging from coaching to community networking and guest experts, as well as access to the News Feed. This online space enables members to network, ask questions, share wins, and seek and offer support.

Nail Tech Tribe

Scratch Stars Business Mentor of the Year 2023, Jo Tompkins, started the Nail Tech Tribe to ‘help other nail techs succeed without needing a salon or team’. The community offers strategies and mentorship to help nail techs build the confidence required to scale their businesses independently.

The community offers a free Facebook group, as well as free resources on its website. Nail techs can also purchase specialist mini-courses to hone their skills in certain areas of business.

The community offers the Nail Business Success Club: a membership which provides exclusive access to the Client Magnetisation Method. This helps members achieve financial stability. Expect access to the brand’s online members area, which includes over 50 masterclasses, monthly question and answer calls, exclusive monthly nail art and guest expert masterclasses, community activities, as well as client scripts to handle a range of enquiries from price objections to bookings.
