A long-time Great Bend resident is now the new face of Renue Salon, Spa and Fashion Boutique where she is at the front desk to welcome clients and accommodate service providers.
Penny Dreiling, salon coordinator, is using her 25 years of accounting and office experience to keep schedules on track and retail products on the shelves.
“My goal is to live up to the standards set by my predecessor, Susan Williams,” Dreiling said. “The priority is to streamline the services we offer and provide the products that our clients want. We achieve this goal by keeping the lines of communication open with everyone.”
Dreiling is available to set appointments and answer questions about services and products, and women’s clothing and accessories at Renue, 1419 Main, Great Bend.
“At the same time,” she noted, “I am using my accounting and office experience to handle the many administrative tasks. When things run smoothly behind the scenes, our clients and providers reap the benefits.”
Renue has been expanding services in recent years and now has 10 providers. These professionals offer hair care, manicures, pedicures, facials, massages and eyelash treatments.
“Since we have so many valuable services, I regularly spread the word through social media,” Dreiling noted. “We want to keep the flow of information going to our regular clients and all newcomers.”
Dreiling has been with Renue for only a short time but is impressed not only with the products and services but also the whole atmosphere of the downtown business.
“This wonderful staff has been so welcoming to me, and the atmosphere is so quiet and calming,” Dreiling commented. “I think our clients appreciate this peaceful environment.
“In addition, providers are conscientious about staying up with trends in salon care and treatment, while also participating in professional continuing education.”
Dreiling was born in Missouri but moved to Great Bend when she was 13 years old; she is a Great Bend High School graduate.
Previous employers include Great Bend Children’s Clinic, Spectrum CPA and First Kansas Bank.
Mark Mingenback, MyTown board member, said “Penny is a great fit for this salon-coordinator position because she excels in working with the public and tending to administrative responsibilities. Sometimes it is difficult to find this combination of talents but we succeeded when we found Penny. Thanks to Penny and Susan Williams, this has been a smooth transition. Clients and providers are fortunate that we have Penny on the Renue team.”
