The market was changing rapidly – and buyers’ habits along with it. For many businesses, its customers were more unsure about purchasing luxury goods and services, but towards the end of the year there was once again an upward growth in the business arena. Internally, Sandiane responded to the problems the pandemic caused by pulling together. It involved all its staff in decisions that were made to sustain Dec20424 the business, prioritising staff salaries, staff health, and staff living conditions in all its plans. It also holds regular morning meetings and workshops so that all staff in this SME’s small but ambitious enterprise feel heard. A positive for Sandiane during this difficult period has been MEA’s continued interest in cosmetology; something that has been an emerging trend for about 10 years. Lazer hair removal has been at the forefront of this. With this increase in eyes on the industry, Sandiane has thus benefitted from the advancements in dermatologybeing invented right on its doorstep. One of the most notable of these was the advent of ‘pain-free and one-day doctor office procedures’ that made dermatology more accessible to those without the time for an extended recovery period after a procedure. Throughout all of this, Sandianehas been determinedly providing a holistic and customised approach to skin care that its patients appreciate. This attitude is evidenced by the glowing reviews and testimonials left by its clients through social media. Having pulled through one of the most difficult periods since its founding, Sandiane is looking forward to a future of growth in every element of its business, prepared to facewhat challenges the world might throw at it next.
