Help,

I am about to start renting a room in a hair salon and its what iv really wanted but now im getting nervous.

Iv ploughed everything into this, if i can't make the rent each month im stuffed as i don't have a single penny to fall back on, this has to work or im screwed.

Any advice about starting out will be gratefully received.

Thanks

Starting out is hard and scary but you will be fine !
Just believe in yourself and treat every client as if they are your only client, make the feel special and get them to re book before they leave the salon.
Make sure your prices aren't too low so you attract the right clients who will spend money with you.
Build a reputation and clients will recommend you. Maybe offer a loyalty scheme or a discount if the recommend a friend to you.
You will always find there is something to pay out in be it stock or insurance etc so try and build up a reserve in your account, also allow for any tax you may have to pay.
Good luck let us know how you get on.
