morning geeks...
i posted a few weeks back about being offered a nail station,
so i have had an interview with the salon manager and the salon owner, both seemed very nice and said they will support me in growing my clientele, the salon is only 18months old its very very nicely done and looks clean, very modern and well just gorgeously brilliant haha. they will be advertising me on there website and out the shop front on an A board (the salon is in an great location very central in a busy town centre). they are happy for me to come and greet all there hair clients and give a free file/massage and hand them a card... they want to include me in their staff meetings because allthough im not employed we are still all working as team which benefits us all. and another plus they are moving the nail station downstairs so the hair clients can actually see us even better for advertising ourselves.
the tech that is already there (a friend of mine) is always fully booked and has been like this for years now, so all walk ins will be mine (they turn a fair few away and i will be the only tech doing acrylics as the other tech is gel only and i do both). and the salon manager said the tech and herself will help me in anyway possible they understand i've only been doing this for just over a year and said this will be great for me to have an experienced tech to work along the side of
I provide my own towels/products but the table/chairs are supplied and i get the use of all salon facilities toilets, drinks machine, decked outside smoking area for clients (reception bring clients upstairs to book with us direct) shared advertising on our A board and in salon posters via a rota system.
thr rent is £200 per month plus £40 VAT (£240 all in)
all in all im sooo excited, but have i got rose tinted glasses on? can any 1 else spot an issue that i havent??
i plan on being there 5days a week tuesday-saturday, when i have no clients in i wil walking the high street handing out leaflets with a offer on (better than sitting twiddling thumbs) my youngest daughter will be at nursery on four of these days and hubby has saturdays off so she will be with him then. its all so exciting but scary too... any advice on being ready and making it a smooth transition would be great
thanks for reading and sorry its an essay
