Summary
Ever feel like you're stuck in the endless cycle of "do it all yourself" as a salon owner? Have you thought about bringing on employees or booth renters but feel overwhelmed by all the legal jargon and don't know where to start? Today, we're diving into the nitty-gritty of hiring in the salon industry, and I’m specifically sharing the 5 things you absolutely need before you hire your very first employee.
In this episode, we're cracking the code on what it really takes to expand your team: from understanding what you can actually afford to a little tough love about what hiring means for your time and energy. Plus, we'll talk about how to make sure your online presence is attracting the right talent and set you up for long-term growth.
As we’re currently in the middle of our Leadership Bootcamp Training, I realized this is a topic we've never fully explored on the podcast, so let's get into it!
Thriving Leadership Method hands salon owners a step-by-step strategy to implement an irresistible culture and create a powerful growth path…all while setting themselves up for structure and profit, and you can join the waitlist NOW at www.thrivingstylist.com/thrivingleadershipmethod/!

Do you have a question for me that you’d like answered in a future episode like this one? A great way to do that is to head over to Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review with your question. I'm looking forward to answering your question on a future episode on the podcast!
