Certification trains your eye. Business builds your career.

In this episode, I break down the gap between being technically trained and running a sustainable, profitable color analysis business. We cover the systems, boundaries, and decisions that protect your energy while increasing demand, so your certification actually turns into long-term work.

You’ll learn:

• Why certification is the foundation, not the finish line
• The technical skills every analyst must master: undertone, depth, contrast, and chroma
• How to use practice clients for volume, variety, and repetition
• How to set realistic daily capacity and avoid burnout
• Pricing that accounts for prep, follow-up, and client support
• How structured post-session calls increase value and clarity
• Booking systems, policies, and clear client instructions that reduce friction
• Why marketing is a separate skill and how platform dependence creates risk
• How to diversify channels and own your email list and website
• When and how to moderate comments to protect focus and momentum
