[RECEPTION] Online Networking A Award galas and educational seminars aren’t the only places where you can rub elbows with fellow beauty professionals—try networking online. Vidal Sassoon-trained, veteran stylist Stephen Marinaro recently launched SalonSearch.com, where stylists and salon owners can check out new trends, market their business and recruit talent. Perhaps the biggest draw is that stylists can post their portfolios on the site for no charge. Also, every visitor can view the nationwide job listings for free. Salon owners can upload a proﬁle of their business that includes staff bios, services, shop photos, customer reviews and a link to directions through Google Maps, but a paid membership is required. Packages range from $29.99 to $599.99 a year. Broadening your exposure from the neighborhood to cyberspace might give your business an out-of-this-world boost.
