Inspiration, Information and Celebration!

By Jarred Stedman

After 25 years, Ultraceuticals still loves to come together and celebrate its community. This year was no exception, the team designed their Beyond Business Conference to be a few days in Australia’s iconic northern waterfront city, Cairns.

Over 180 Ultraceuticals salon owners and managers flew north to restore and reset at the five-star luxury escape, Crystalbrook Hotel.

With the aim to bring together great minds and create what, Ultraceuticals Founder, Dr Geoffrey Heber, describes as ‘a collective intelligence’.

Following on from the opening party that saw everyone dressed in ‘white and bright’ and setting the stage for a memorable conference, the first day was filled with speakers and awards which Mocha Group’s General Manager Jarred Stedman, was thrilled to cover exclusively as the trade media partner.

Ultraceuticals R&D Director, Dr Shiva Farabi, gave an indepth and truly eye-opening overview of what the Research and Development (R&D) team have been working on and the science that goes into product development from their PHD stacked team.

Mixing in insightfulness and forward-thinking outside the industry, Amanda Stevens, Chris Helder and Jarred Abbott were invited as the keynote speakers.

Covering customer service trends, mindsets of successful people, and personality traits.

CEO Andrew Dingle took to the stage and interviewed Carla Pizzirani, owner of Face Bar in Tasmania, who was the top-performing salon and had achieved a staggering 20 percent growth in the past 12 months.

Utilising the astonishing natural beauty of Cairns, the obvious option for those who were interested, was to go on a Great Barrier Reef adventure.

What a perfect way to top off this inspiring conference.
