Business Tips
Work Agreements
With the rising cost of business, business
stability should be a high priority with all salon owners. With the
proliferation of booth rental and the always threat of staff turnover and
instability , more and more astute salon owners are adding work
agreements and non compete clauses in their salon , s employee hand
book , to protect their client lists , combat staff turnover ,and avoid
business interruptions . Business and staff stability is essential if
you want to maintain business growth and profitability, for
yourself and your staff. It will be a wise investment by you contacting
a good labor law attorney who will help you draft a fair work
agreement that will benefit both management and staff. If you are
going to invest time and money in training and education, for your
staff members, you have every right to protect your business
interests, and the livelihoods of your staff as well. Of course you
as leader of your team must also create conditions that foster loyalty
and respect. How are we to continue to raise prices and grow our
businesses with a constant threat of staff turnover and business
interruptions? Sample work agreements can be found in my book
"Creating Your Business".
Unity Among Salon Owners
organize salon owners within your
community and meet for coffee once a month and discuss and share
opinions on how we can address many of the problems and challenges
we face as salon owners. There is power in numbers. There is more
than enough business for every one. It's time we take back our
profession and our salons and return to professionalism and a
high code of ethics. As salon owners who are united, we can make
this industry more responsive to our business and educational needs.
By meeting other salon owners you, will find that we all share the
same challenges, and will be able to form wonderful friendships as
well.
