LOCKDOWN WILL END

BUT CAN HAIR SALONS’ & BARBERSHOPS’

SURVIVE?

Money worries unfortunately mean that many hair salon and barber
business owners cannot be free.

We all want to be financially free, to do what we want, as and when we

want to with our lives and our money!
Control your financial destiny.

The global pandemic and Brexit makes getting your finances in order
even more critically important: the stakes could not be higher!

Our wonderful hair and personal care sector saw a fantastic economic

bounce-back in the form of a ‘V’ shape when the economy re-opened at
the end of the lockdown last summer.

It’s time to wisely evaluate your business finance plan and get ready for

re-opening after this current lockdown.
You will need to:

Put up your prices! It is absolute madness to assume that your business

can re-open while still charging the same amount for your services as
you were before lockdown.

During the last lockdown, we all learnt how much our clients

appreciated us and our services – more than ever before! Most
consumers now have more disposable income to spend (due to not going

out as much or on holidays during the pandemic) so they will be only

too happy to make an appointment at your salon or barbershop and cost
won’t be their priority! In fact, many clients may wonder why you

haven’t put your prices up when every other high street business has. As

the old saying goes: If you don’t charge enough people will think you’re
not good enough!’
