Instructions
Step 1
Decide on the positioning of your salon. Today, many entrepreneurs in this area make a common mistake, trying to offer maximum services. Meanwhile, such a variety looks very suspicious and raises doubts about the quality and professionalism. Therefore, place your bet on one direction. If you have a medical degree and the prospect of obtaining a license, consider the services of aesthetic and wellness medicine. If you are more interested in the sphere of hairdressing services and professional cosmetics, give preference to this particular direction.
Step 2
After registering your company, resolve all administrative issues and find a good location. Examine the traffic in the area and the presence of closest competitors. In the salon, create a pleasant atmosphere with thoughtful decor, interesting design, comfortable furniture, beautiful music. Each client must have at least 8 m² of area. Organize the space in a way that makes your visitors feel comfortable.
Step 3
The main expense in organizing a salon is equipment and consumables. For the provision of cosmetic services, choose modern devices. Manufacturers can be found at exhibitions, while there is a chance to get the equipment itself on favorable terms.
Step 4
Choose 2-3 brands of professional cosmetics to be used in the salon. Enter into an agreement with the owners of these brands. In the case of official use of cosmetics, manufacturers will not only provide you with the entire assortment at the most favorable prices, but will also supply you with all kinds of advertising materials - from branded showcases to brochures. In addition, cosmetic brand owners often organize master classes and trainings for masters.
Step 5
Properly selected personnel play one of the key roles in the organization of a beauty salon. Since there are too many offers on this market, most of the clients try to find “their own master”, be it a hairdresser, masseur or pedicure master. Experienced professionals usually have their own client base. People with whom the master has been working for many years will almost always visit the very salon in which he works.
Step 6
Choose one of the schemes for working with personnel. You can rent out a workplace to the foreman by setting a fixed amount that he must rent on a monthly basis, regardless of the revenue. In this case, the master uses his consumables. Or set a certain percentage of your total income as your salary. In this case, you yourself must take care of supplying the salon with everything you need.
