Rent space in beauty salon traditional approach
If you are a beauty or wellness professional, you most likely know of the traditional beauty shops, a retail establishment with multiple workstations, each “manned” by a beauty professional, where hair is styled, nails are manicured, or other beauty services provided. The beauty salon is owned by someone, and the workstations are operated by independent professionals who work for commissions and pay a small rental fee for use of the workstation. This business model has been in operation since the beginning of the 20th Century. It was very profitable for the owner of the salon, and it served as a steady job for the beauty professionals who were doing the work.
Those professionals were certainly not getting rich working for commissions, but they did have steady jobs which paid their bills and provided them with job security, so in that way, this was a win-win for everyone concerned.
The only problem? It is a dead-end job for the independent contractors; their earnings are based on commissions, and there is simply no way to increase earnings.
Salon suite rental where you own the beauty shop.
Maybe fifteen years ago a new business model came into being. With this new business model, the independent contractors rented salon suites in a building comprised of individual suites, and in those suites individual businesses were located. Call them mini salons, if you will, one-or-two-person beauty salons where the “worker bees” were also the owners.
With this business model, there is no limitation on earnings, just as there is no limitation on earnings for any business. You pay the rent for the salon suite, you make the decisions related to your salon, and you reap the profits you earn. It is beauty salon ownership on a micro level, and it has become wildly popular across the United States.
Is this business model for you?
But is it for you? We cannot answer that question for you. We can tell you that it is very affordable, and we can tell you that this is a highly successful business path . . . if you are a self-starter, if you like being in control of your destiny, if you are great with customer service, and if you can handle the pressure of not having a safety net. Not everyone is comfortable with making major decisions on a regular basis. Some people enjoy the security of working a steady job for someone else.
Only you know you, but what we can tell you is this business model is worth checking out. It costs you nothing to gather information.
