Michael Landsberg met Susann Muth as a young, dynamic beautician from Eastern Germany. As a single mother, she forged her path with her daughter and had a clear wish: to open a large, beautiful beauty institute in the heart of Siegburg.
A difficult situation with a bank at the time presented her with the challenge of having to manage everything on her own within the shortest possible time. With her skill, dedication, and special intuition for people, she mastered it with flying colors. We have great respect for that.
At Landsberg, Susann also managed to secure first prize in the shortest possible time. A special moment that was captured in a joint photo, even made it into the press, and has remained in our memory to this day.
The photo is now about nine years old. It reminds us of what is possible with hard work, assertiveness, expertise, and the right touch for decisions. Susann used Landsberg’s portfolio for her journey and turned it into an impressive entrepreneurial success story.
Today, in the field of beauty institutes, she ranks number one at Landsberg. She is therefore among our Top 100 and leads her customer group in terms of revenue with Landsberg. For this outstanding achievement, she receives a trophy from us.
We view our three customer groups separately: beauty institutes, physicians from various specialties with an aesthetic focus, and five-star hotels. Their operational requirements and equipment differ significantly. The separate evaluation enables fair recognition of achievements within each group.
Susann has worked her way to the top in an environment of exceptionally strong beauty institutes. Behind this success are skill, perseverance, and many smart day-to-day decisions. Her journey is encouraging and shows the possibilities this profession offers.
What is personally important to her in all of this, she describes in a recent post:
“I believe true greatness is not shown in how far we have come. But in how much humanity we have preserved along the way.”
She writes about listening, helpfulness, and the people whose hearts we touch. These thoughts fit the Susann we have come to know over the years. Her most recent gestures also show how much shared memories and the people by her side mean to her.
For Michael Landsberg’s 60th birthday, a large cake was carried into the hall by several people. Susann’s surprise: printed on marzipan was precisely that joint photo from the award ceremony back then.
“When this cake was carried into the hall at my birthday celebration, I was incredibly delighted. The fact that Susann chose precisely this picture after so many years means a lot to me,” says Michael Landsberg.
At the same time, Susann surprised her closest team with another message: she is funding an educational trip for them for professional development in aesthetics at Landsberg in Malta. In doing so, she creates an opportunity to learn and grow together. A personal recognition for the people who help shape her journey.
Dear Susann, hats off to your achievement and the humanity you have preserved along the way. Thank you for our long-standing connection and this personal gift. You have shown us not only symbolically, but quite literally, how sweet success tastes.
