I'm starting a salon with my friend....any suggestions on how to get things started?

First your going to need lots of money. As soon as you can do that, the rest is easy.I'm starting a salon with my friend....any suggestions on how to get things started?
If you already have your spaced rented and things lined up then they way to advertise is FREE HAIRCUTS! Perhaps you could go to a womens shelter and do some chairty work and just happen to call the local news channels......Do good things for others and help yourself while doing it. You also might consult someone from the small business bureau. They actually have mentors that will give you an overview of starting a new buiness. Also get an attorney to draw up an agreement, because it is not a good idea to do business with friends.....go to the bookstore and read up on starting a business from people that have done it.I'm starting a salon with my friend....any suggestions on how to get things started?
Hmm...you should always look online for an available building. Medium size. Not too expensive. If you have already purchased the building, painting and decorating walls and windows should come first. Then, you should buy the furniture. Just google search a store that sells salon things. My suggestion would probably be bed bath and beyond. Flyers come next. Create bold, creative flyers, including the name of your salon, and where it is. Put them in your neighborhood, and by the salon. Good Luck!!!
make sure that you have the right equipment that you need to use for the salon. Make sure that you don't run out of supplies either. Keep in stock. If you hire people, make sure you're hiring people who have experiences.








That's all I can do for you!


Hope that it helps!!!

Pick up an issue of ';Sophistocate's Black Hair'; and they have a section called salon talk and it usually has tips about running a salon and it has toooooooooooooooons of great hair tips. Its like the best hair mag EVER!
How about you advertise through people you know, and maybe hold a small oarty with like free cookies and drinks or something for an opening day party. Maybe offer discounted services for a select days. Hope this helps and GOOD LUCK! %26lt;3
