As a salon owner for over a decade, I have a strong opinion about sliding scales.

When you run your numbers & look at the facts of your business, it's clear that sliding scales are important for a number of reasons.

Sliding scales allow you to receive a profit regardless of your stylist's prices & they create a clear growth plan for your team to follow.

But I'm the first to say that business is not one size fits all. Figuring out what works best for you & your business is what's most important.

 The information presented in this podcast is my opinion. I always recommend speaking to a professional before making changes in your business .

Big mistakes come with huge learning lessons.

In 2020, I made a mistake that cost me over $50,000. And the mistake I made is still available to small business owners.

The moral of the story? Hire a professional to read the fine print. It's worth every penny!

"Be your own boss!" "Create your own business where you'll set the rules!" "Be in control of your space, income and more!"

These are all the things that we hear when people talk about opening up their own business, but I'm here to address something important: salon ownership isn't meant for everyone.

It's a thankless job that requires a lot of dedication, effort and funds. While I love being a salon owner, I'm sharing the realities behind the screen so anyone who's interested can make an informed decision.
