Guide to Beauty and Personal Care Product Organizations
Stay abreast of industry issues, news and trends by joining beauty and personal care product organizationsBecoming a member of the right organization opens the door to a wealth of expertise. You will be exposed to many networking opportunities, information and resources. Additionally, beauty care groups may also provide invaluable services that include new products, education opportunities and industry support. When looking for membership with a cosmetology organization, remember the following:
1. Make sure the association you're interested in is credible. Check Better Business Bureau or other industry accreditations.
2. Most organizations charge fees for memberships, so make sure you’re getting your money’s worth before you pay.
3. Many personal product organizations don’t stipulate membership for certification.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Become a member of an accredited beauty products association
Although many organizations offer information, tools and resources to non-members, you can benefit substantially from becoming a member. Membership opens the door to additional service, product and representation. Register as a business rather than as just an individual, if possible, so your employees can benefit from the membership.
I recommend:
The Natural Products Association provides publications, networking, and government relations as part of its membership benefits package. The Personal Care Products Council offers in-depth reports on the latest scientific research on personal care products, as well as industry representation.
Take advantage of training opportunities provided by beauty organizations
Progress stops for no one, and you need to advance as a professional by keeping your industry skills sharp and current. Take advantage of educational programs and tools to assist you and your employees in knowledge development and career advancement. Many organizations offer information on upcoming seminars, conferences, business development courses and other industry-related programs, in addition to industry certifications.
I recommend:
The International Nail Technicians Association offers online training, events and information on the latest trends to its members. The Professional Beauty Association provides many continuing-education opportunities and special discounts.
Join cosmetology organizations that offer a full schedule of events and conferences
Events and conferences are a boon to any business. They give you an opportunity to network and share issues with industry peers. More importantly, they give your company exposure within the industry, and provide you an opportunity to further your relationships with other businesses. Try and pick organizations with nationally-recognized events.
I recommend:
Independent Cosmetic Manufacturers & Distributors and the National Cosmetology Association both provide an events calendar for educational and networking opportunities.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide- If you are considering personal care associations for their online resources, look for one with an active forum where you can discuss issues with industry experts in real time.
