EP24 - 8 TOP TIPS TO STARTING YOUR OWN SALON INDUSTRY BUSINESS

In this episode I am giving you a starter of what you need to consider when looking to start a mobile salon business, a home salon business and a salon premises business.  For all discerning salon professionals that have an entrepreneurial mindset owning your own business is often the dream.  In today's world this can be on a smaller scale or on a large scale of spa domination, salon franchise models or more.  But, the one thing in common is that they all start from the same place... Preparation & Opportunity!

To start a business of any size the same key things remain - location, ideal client, branding & marketing with business literacy and the support services that surround it all being in place.

Starting the journey can be daunting, but with the right knowledge and education you will be able to make the first steps into Salon Owner Success!!

In this podcast I mention the the downloadable FREE pdf on '8 Top Tips to Starting Your Salon Industry Business' which is available here.
