This year I\'ve spent a lot of time in the United States with John Paul Mitchell Systems presenting one of my favourite seminars that I call \\u2018GROW MY COLOR BUSINESS\' which is something we should all be focused on.
\\xa0
As hairdressers, it\\u2019s essential that we know how to consult and design and apply a colour. But it\\u2019s equally important that we know how to make money from it.
\\xa0
I\'m currently sitting in a Hotel room in Las Vegas and for today\'s podcast, I\'m online talking with Alicia Soulier in Saskatchewan Canada. Aleisha is a hairdresser, salon owner and founder of tech company SalonScale.com which is a hair colour app that amongst other things ensures that you know the exact cost of product in every colour service leaving the salon - Which means that you can, therefore, price your colour services accordingly.
\\xa0
I think that there are two stories here, one is the Salon Scale story and how the app can help salon owners and hairdressers. And the other is about a young woman who is a hairdresser who starts a tech company and succeeds against all odds\\u2026
\\xa0
Amongst other things, we will discuss
  • The problems that SalonScale solves
  • How to maximise the profitability of your colour services
  • How should you price salon colour services
  • What is the typical percentage of a colour service that should be product cost?

Thanks for listening!
