Part 1 Consumer Segmentation:
Successful salon owners, consumer-shopping experts and beauty
editors explore the spending habits of today's clients. Rueben
Carranza, CEO of P&G Salon Professional, kicks off the forum
by explaining why it's important to segment your clients, then
Mark Komanecky, P&G shopper based design manager, delves
into P&G's vast consumer research to expose salon client segments
and shopper-based design. An incredible "Salon Owner

segment. On tap for this panel are owners Janine Jarman of

the day-in/day-out strategies of being a leader and demonstrating
some guiding principles required to sustain those behaviors. Neil
