Women in Business Committee

Christine Pusateri Solutions is a niche business. We deal with something that affects about half of the population as they age, hair loss. I have been working in the field since I was 18 years old and found it fascinating. There are so many aspects to the business. We deal with everything from total alopecia, cancer hair loss, men and women’s pattern baldness, trichotillomania, and hair loss caused by stress.
I have worked for a few companies honing my craft over the years, and you learn what you think works, and what you would change. At 62, after a promise to buy a business that never came to fruition, I went on my own. I am so glad I did!

There are many reasons why your business growth becomes stagnant or starts to decline. A lack of enthusiasm, focus, drive, and desire can spread like a virus among your employees, suppliers, customers, and prospects. You must differentiate yourself in a positive way. Be the business that they’re HAPPY to do business with!
