Oh what a mixed week!<\/p>\n

In this I would now have been at the Cosmoprof fair in Italy and had (hopefully) successful meetings with both producers and packaging manufacturers - and been full of inspiration!<\/p>\n

But instead I sit at home in bed with my cat and blog and it's not a crazy Sunday either;)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The corona virus for small business owners<\/h4>\n

As a self-employed person, I'm pretty nervous about the consequences of the coronavirus now\u2026<\/p>\n

We are just at the end of a low season of the year and long for (need) the spring and summer season now with a lot of bookings and the opportunity to save a buffer for the next low season again.<\/p>\n

In other words, we do not have a buffer for any crisis right now and we really can not afford to miss the peak season if this hysteria will continue.<\/p>\n

One moment I'm coal because we have not seen so many cancellations yet, the staff are healthy and we are always super careful with the hygiene routines at the salon with hand washing before \/ after the customers, disinfected tools, own rooms for the customers etc. but we work on just as usual. Our workplace is probably one of the safer places to be, I would say!<\/p>\n

Andra stunden \u00e4r jag r\u00e4dd f\u00f6r precis allt – att kunderna inte ska v\u00e5ga boka tid l\u00e4ngre, att personalen m\u00e5ste vara sjuka allihopa pga “f\u00f6rkylningsk\u00e4nningar” eller att Sverige tv\u00e5ngsst\u00e4nger skolor och arbetsplatser helt.<\/p>\n

Had corona arrived this autumn, we would have had a little buffer to survive on, but now the financial stress is palpable!<\/p>\n

It's not only the company I worry about either but also my own personal finances, I kind of have all the savings in funds and shares (which you absolutely do not want to sell now!) And without either salary or access to my savings, it is not for a long time I have food on the table :)<\/p>\n

No, but you should not take out the accident in advance, the salon will continue to roll on as usual and the shares will soon go up again - and so it will be! ;)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tyckte det var lite passande med en t\u00e5gbild nu haha. Jag \u00e5kte till Stockholm kl. 7.20 i onsdags (borde vara tok-rusning d\u00e5?) och sa till Miska innan “jag kommer beh\u00f6va st\u00e5!” men det var j\u00e4ttemycket tomma platser f\u00f6r att f\u00e4rre \u00e5ker kollektivtrafik nu antar jag?<\/p>\n

But it was lucky because then I could work during the trip :) Nothing bad that does not bring anything good with it!<\/p>\n

Press breakfast with Jolie Beauty<\/h4>\n

Some days I do tasks that are boring to take photos and blog about because it basically means that I press the computer at home at the dining table for 10 hours.<\/p>\n

But when there are planned things I have to go on, I try to collect them for the same day, it becomes more efficient! One such day I had on Wednesday:<\/p>\n

Press breakfast for Joliebeauty.se<\/a> in Stockholm. I have said no to press events in the last 3 years (due to too much with the salon and other things) but now I thought I would get better at all that again!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You always get so spoiled at just press breakfasts \u2665<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jolie Beauty is a retailer of organic brands and has very luxurious products!<\/p>\n

I myself sold most organic before but thought it was difficult to sell, many people probably think that organic \/ natural = worse results? But that does not have to be the case at all!<\/p>\n

S\u00e5 jag tror mycket p\u00e5 den nishen “ekologiskt utan att ta bort den lyxiga k\u00e4nslan” som Jolie Beauty har.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Top Makeupbylina<\/a> be there! It's so much fun at press events because you always meet new people though also<\/em>\u00a0m\u00e5nga “gamla godingar” som kom redan n\u00e4r jag b\u00f6rjade g\u00e5 p\u00e5 event f\u00f6r typ 7 (?) \u00e5r sedan.<\/p>\n

Make up at Disruptive Materials<\/h4>\n

2. Then I hurried to the salon, packed my freelance bag and went to Disruptive Materials where I had a make-up job (photography for their website again)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The girl I made up asked if she could take a picture of me and all the make-up and then she sent it to me :)<\/p>\n

“Mentorsm\u00f6te” f\u00f6r sminkm\u00e4rket och inst\u00e4lld m\u00e4ssa<\/h4>\n

3. Immediately after the make-up job, I was at a meeting regarding Cosmoprof being canceled. I had meetings with producers in Italy, but now it will be email and Skype instead and I got feedback on the material that I will send away.<\/p>\n

It goes almost as well this way at a distance, I think. But they have a lot now and some factories are closing down completely, so it can actually sink the whole project .. Hope not!<\/p>\n

Have no picture from the meeting though :)<\/p>\n

Meeting with SEB<\/h4>\n

4. Then immediately after that (still on Wednesday) I had a meeting with SEB which took time because I had several cases we had to go through.<\/p>\n

Firstly, I started two new limited companies in January (I know, completely crazy) so it was a lot of paperwork to get an account, bank transfer and debit card for both companies.<\/p>\n

In addition, I had a financing question about one of the companies that did not seem completely impossible, so I sincerely hope that it goes to lock!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Do you feel so professional when you have sat and signed paper for 1.5 hours?<\/p>\n

Press dinner with PIXI<\/h4>\n

There are few brands that are as close to my heart and heart as Pixi! Love them!<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Pixi had a press dinner and showed news. I went there with the best Tove Castor<\/a> which I have not met in a long time, just such a thing! \u2665<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I get so HAPPY from Pixi !!<\/p>\n

We will actually include their skin care in the range is the plan, but will have to wait and see what happens to the corona crisis just before we make any major orders - in case there is any kind of crisis.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tove and Miska check out the goodie bag!<\/p>\n

Miska fick ocks\u00e5 en inbjudan (s\u00e5 kul!) och det var f\u00f6rsta g\u00e5ngen han f\u00f6ljde med mig p\u00e5 ett pressevent! Han var med p\u00e5 Blog Awards n\u00e4r jag var nominerad till \u00c5rets Beautyblogg men annars har han inte sett den h\u00e4r “delen” av mitt liv. Inte f\u00f6r att den delen \u00e4r s\u00e5 stor l\u00e4ngre men \u00e4nd\u00e5 :)<\/p>\n

I loved being with Miska, want him to come along every time now! \u2665<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So wonderful evening!<\/p>\n

No, now it's almost 20:00 this Sunday and I thought I would have time for a little movie before I go to sleep, so I have to stop chatting here now. I've been tossing around this weekend too (but not with work stuff) so need some downtime in front of Netflix now and just chill down in bed before it's time for a new work week.<\/p>\n

Hugs to you all! :)<\/p>\n
