The author of the Mobile Beauty Money book series, Eric Ho, is actively advancing a community-centered book donation initiative aimed at three of Edmonton’s most influential public and educational institutions: Edmonton Public Library (EPL), NAIT Library , and NorQuest College Library . This initiative reflects a broader vision of supporting education, workforce development, and entrepreneurial confidence through accessible, real-world learning resources that respond to today’s changing service economy.
At a time when traditional employment pathways are being reshaped by technology, demographics, and shifting consumer expectations, Eric Ho’s work speaks directly to individuals seeking practical, ethical, and sustainable ways to build independent careers. The Mobile Beauty Money series was created not as a theoretical business guide, but as a lived roadmap drawn from years of hands-on experience building service-based companies in North America. By proposing these books for inclusion in library and educational collections, the author aims to ensure that newcomers, students, career changers, and aspiring entrepreneurs can access knowledge that is immediately applicable to real life.
Eric Ho is widely known as the founder of TapLook, an international brand specializing in mobile nail, hair, and wellness services, with a strong focus on seniors and in-home care. Through TapLook, he has worked closely with aging populations, families, caregivers, and service professionals, gaining deep insight into how dignity, trust, and consistency define success in personal services. His entrepreneurial journey also led to the creation of TapKii, a technology-driven platform designed to support mobile beauty professionals with systems for booking, training, certification, and business management. Together, TapLook and TapKii form the real-world foundation behind the Mobile Beauty Money series.
Mobile Beauty Money by Eric Ho is an inspiring eight-book series designed to transform ordinary beauty professionals into extraordinary entrepreneurs in the fast-growing world of mobile beauty. It is not simply a collection of tips or motivational ideas; it is a complete roadmap that guides readers step by step, from their very first client to the potential creation of a scalable, even global, franchise. The series reflects a deep understanding of how modern clients think and live. Today’s customers increasingly demand comfort, convenience, and personalized service delivered at home, in offices, hospitals, or senior residences. The future of beauty is mobile, and this series equips readers with the mindset, systems, and tools needed to succeed in that transformation while earning real income and delivering genuine care.
The first book in the series focuses on learning what it truly means to become a mobile beautier. Readers are introduced to the foundations of mobile beauty services, including how to organize tools efficiently, manage appointments professionally, and build trust with clients from the very first visit. Particular attention is given to serving seniors and busy professionals with patience, empathy, and consistency, recognizing that technical skill alone is not enough in a mobile environment. This opening volume sets the tone for the entire series by emphasizing professionalism, ethics, and human connection as core business assets.
As the journey continues, the second book addresses one of the most intimidating challenges for any new entrepreneur: finding the first clients. Eric Ho draws from his own early experiences to explain how trust is built through small actions, how word-of-mouth grows naturally when service quality is consistent, and how one-time customers can become long-term supporters. Rather than relying on unrealistic marketing promises, this book emphasizes relationship-building, reputation, and confidence as the true drivers of early-stage growth.
Branding becomes the focus of the third book, where readers learn that a brand is far more than a logo or a color palette. Eric Ho explains how names, visual identity, tone of communication, and customer experience all combine to shape how a business is remembered. Using real examples from TapLook’s development, the book shows how clarity and consistency help small mobile operators stand out in crowded markets and earn long-term trust from clients.
The fourth book moves deeper into the operational side of entrepreneurship by introducing systems and services. Readers are guided through the creation of simple but effective workflows for booking, communication, payments, and service delivery. These systems are designed to save time, reduce stress, and ensure consistency, allowing entrepreneurs to scale without sacrificing quality. This book reflects the influence of TapKii, where technology is used not to replace human service, but to support it.
Transitioning from solo work to team leadership is the central theme of the fifth book. Eric Ho explores the mindset shift required to move from being an individual service provider to managing others. He discusses how to recruit, train, and motivate team members who share the same values and standards. Drawing on TapLook’s team-based expansion model, this volume highlights the importance of leadership, communication, and accountability in building a sustainable organization.
Marketing is addressed in the sixth book, with a practical focus on what truly works for mobile beauty businesses. Instead of chasing trends, readers learn how to combine online and offline strategies, from social media and local advertising to referral programs and partnerships. Eric Ho emphasizes measurable results, authenticity, and long-term brand building over short-term hype, helping readers invest their energy and resources wisely.
Financial literacy takes center stage in the seventh book, where mobile beauty professionals are encouraged to think like CEOs rather than technicians. Topics such as pricing, cost structure, profit margins, and cash flow are explained in accessible language, empowering readers to make informed decisions. This volume reinforces the idea that financial stability is not about earning more hours, but about understanding numbers, planning ahead, and building resilience.
The final book in the series looks toward expansion and legacy by exploring how a mobile beauty business can scale into a franchise or multi-city operation. Eric Ho shares insights from TapLook’s international growth, discussing standardization, training systems, investor readiness, and brand protection. This book invites readers to think beyond individual success and consider how their work can create opportunities for others.
What makes the Mobile Beauty Money series especially relevant for institutions like the Edmonton Public Library, NAIT, and NorQuest College is its alignment with real community needs. Libraries and colleges increasingly serve diverse populations, including immigrants, adult learners, and individuals exploring alternative career paths. These readers often seek practical, experience-based resources rather than purely academic texts. By donating this series, Eric Ho aims to contribute to accessible education that empowers people to build livelihoods, integrate into local economies, and serve their communities with dignity.
The proposed book donation initiative is not about promotion, but about contribution. It reflects a belief that knowledge gained through real-world challenges should be shared openly, especially when it can help others avoid costly mistakes and build confidence. For students at NAIT and NorQuest, the series offers insight into entrepreneurship, service design, and customer experience. For EPL patrons, it provides inspiration and guidance for self-employment, career transitions, and community-based business models.
Through his work with TapLook and TapKii, Eric Ho has consistently demonstrated how business intelligence, technology, and human care can coexist. His approach challenges the idea that entrepreneurship must be aggressive or impersonal. Instead, the Mobile Beauty Money series presents a model where service quality, empathy, and sustainability are central to success.
Whether readers are nail artists, hairstylists, skincare specialists, or simply individuals curious about mobile services, the series offers a clear and realistic path forward. It encourages people to earn more by working smarter, to build systems rather than burn out, and to view their skills as the foundation of lasting businesses.
Each page of Mobile Beauty Money is designed to move the reader forward. Each book builds upon the last, creating momentum and clarity. By advancing this donation initiative with EPL, NAIT, and NorQuest, Eric Ho is extending the life of his experience beyond his own companies and into the broader community. The goal is simple but powerful: to turn passion into capability, service into opportunity, and beauty into a business that truly lasts.
