Your salon team is one of the most valuable parts of your business. They are the face of your brand and their success is equal to your success. With strong competition between businesses in the hair and beauty industry, it’s more important than ever to be standing out from the crowds!
Setting targets both for your salon team individually and your business as a whole can be a great way to motivate your team to strive for great results. What can make these targets perform even better in your salon, spa or clinic is the introduction of incentives to drive your team towards further success.
