WORLD CLASS EDUCATION
WORLD CLASS BRANDS
INTERNATIONAL GUEST SPEAKERS
Passion to Profits 2.0 is an annual educational conference hosted by PBS to celebrate the passion for the beauty industry and provide world class education to their stockists. This year Professional Beauty Solutions flew in the best experts from around the globe to create 13 amazing sessions. Our P2P conference and gala dinner was a massive success, with many highlights and amazing lessons that our loyal salons took away from, as well as enjoying a little bit of fun and mingling in the evening.
PBS provided its' salons, spas and clinics the opportunity to give their business a boost with our all-encompassing event; attendees gained valuable industry insight to a better and more profitable understanding of the brands and their products with the founders and international experts in a motivating workshop environment.
“I am feeling privileged to be a part of the PBS family. Their customer service and delivery of training as well as promptly delivering my parcels is above and beyond other companies in the same business. I found all sessions [at Passion to Profits] I attended to be highly informative, entertaining and kept me wanting more." - Janine Cox, Secret Beauty
