From Failed Fashion Business To Med Spa Founder | Milkah Wachira

تفصیل

Most people see skincare as beauty. Milkah Wachira sees it as trust, systems, education, customer psychology and cash flow management under pressure.Before building Skin Reveal Clinic into one of Nairobi’s growing aesthetic and corrective skincare brands, she burned through bad inventory decisions, unstable partnerships, weak financial structures and painful business losses. One failed clothing venture left her with dead stock for years. Another partnership reportedly cost her close to KSh 1 million after funds disappeared without contracts or safeguards in place.Then came the salon business.A bold KSh 5 million setup. Two floors. Aggressive marketing. Rapid traction. But behind the growth were constant HR battles, staff turnover, operational pressure and eventually the reality that scaling beauty businesses is far harder than social media makes it look.In this episode of Financially Incorrect Business Edition, Milkah Wachira breaks down the economics of beauty and aesthetics in Kenya, the cost of building customer trust, why many salons struggle with structure, how COVID forced a strategic pivot into advanced skincare, and why professionalism changed everything in her business.She also speaks candidly about investor money she never recovered, learning financial discipline late, navigating unsecured loans, supplier credit systems, marketing ROI, and the operational realities behind running a medspa in Nairobi CBD.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Access all our links in one place: ⁠https://lnk.bio/Financially_Inc💹 Ready to start trading?🔍 Who is FXPesa: ⁠https://shorturl.at/rWFqC🎓 Learn how to trade: ⁠https://shorturl.at/xR2Ye⁠📊 Try a demo account: ⁠https://shorturl.at/izDMc⁠💸 Open a live account: ⁠https://shorturl.at/Od2ux---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Episode Chapter00:00 Introduction00:28 FXPesa Sponsorship &
