Welcome to The CORE

A new kind of membership.

One that develops your people, elevates your brand and drives growth in confidence, in revenue and in long-term client loyalty.

The CORE is a monthly membership designed to equip your teams in beauty, spa, hair, wellness, or retail with the skills to sell with confidence, care and commercial success, delivering measurable retail growth, higher conversion rates and elevated service standards across your business.

Meet the founder

Arif Isikgun

Retail Educator. Strategic Consultant. Storytelling Specialist.
Creator of Retail Excellence and The CORE.

I built The CORE because I’ve seen both sides of this industry - the shine, and the silence. I’ve worked in some of the most prestigious retail environments in the world: Harrods, Selfridges, Liberty, Aman Resorts, and with global brands across spa, beauty, and fragrance. I’ve been a QVC guest presenter, helped brands go from invisible to sold out, and supported professionals in growing their retail conversion rates by over 500%.

But what I’m most proud of isn’t just the numbers - it’s the people. Because behind every sale is a conversation. Behind every high-performing team is confidence. And behind every confident professional, seller, or service provider is someone who finally started believing in themselves.

That’s why The CORE exists.

I created this membership because there’s a missing piece in our industry.

I created this membership because there’s a missing piece in our industry.


We train people in treatments. We train them in ingredients. We tell them to hit targets. But we don’t give them the tools to sell in a way that feels natural, personal, or emotionally intelligent.

I’m here to change that.

The CORE stands for Connection, Opportunity, Retail, Empowerment - and that’s exactly what it delivers.


It’s a space to build confidence, sharpen skills, and feel part of something bigger.

It’s The Collective of Retail Excellence - a cause that's deeply important to me, as I champion spaces of safety and growth as an educator. I'm open to salon owners, spa leaders, freelancers, therapists, hairdressers, stylists, brand reps, and anyone in service who wants to grow sustainably and soulfully.

This is a new era of retail. One rooted in storytelling, not scripts. In service, not hard-sell tactics. In real human connection, not just perfection.

I’ve watched therapists cry with pride after selling their first product. I’ve supported teams who’ve doubled their revenue in weeks, just by changing their language and energy. I’ve seen what happens when people are no longer afraid of the word “retail” - because they finally understand it as care, not pressure.

This membership isn’t just about tips and tricks. It’s about transformation.


You don’t need to be louder. Or more confident. Or someone else entirely.


You just need to come back to your core, the part of you that knows how to connect, how to serve, and how to sell with integrity.

The CORE is for you if:


- You want to grow your revenue without losing your authenticity


- You want ongoing support that fits around your reality


- You want to be part of a collective that gets what you do


- You want to learn how to sell with purpose, story, and heart

This isn’t a course. This isn’t just content.


This is your space and your community.


To rise. To reconnect. And to sell - beautifully, boldly and with meaning.

Welcome to The CORE.
