- Are You Running A Business OR Just Doin’ Hair - This power packed seminar will help salon owners and independent contractors run their businesses more effectively.

- Minding Your Business: Small businesses are often started by skilled workers or “technicians” who are great at what they do. Beauty and Barber professionals are no exception. Most salon owners, booth renters, and independent contractors are technicians who became self-taught owners. When serious challenges arise in running these operations, the owners soon realize that being a great stylist or barber doesn’t automatically produce a successful business. Before a barber, stylist, nail tech, or esthetician decides to go into business for him or herself, there are some business basics that need to be learned. Even if the basics weren’t learned or followed at the beginning of the project, it’s never too late to go back and learn what may have been missed or misapplied. Whether you’re starting a new company or restructuring an existing one, this seminar of intensive business training is for you! Attendees will explore:

- Building Your Business Credit Seminar - One of the great benefits of starting a business is that it is possible to establish a new and separate credit profile that is distinct from your personal credit profile. This means that although you may have poor personal credit, you can structure your new business in a manner that allows you to build a pristine credit profile for your company, allowing you to receive loans, credit cards, lines of credit, etc. that you would not be able to obtain as an individual (and often at better interest rates).
When you build credit for your business, you don’t have to use your personal credit as a guarantee to obtain money for your business. You can build business credit for your business regardless of your personal credit history. Having business credit will allow you to have capital for your business, protect and separate your personal assets from your business, allow you to purchase salon equipment, computers and vehicle without checking your personal credit.
In this seminar business owners will learn:
- Learn the 8 basic steps required to build their business credit
- The advantages of building a Business Credit Profile
- How to start building business credit for their business
