Salon
furniture purchasing can be the most important decision you make when
designing or remodeling your salon. There are several steps that are
integral to the furnishing of your salon:
-
Plan ahead. Begin the purchasing process at least 90 days before your expected opening. Allow for unexpected delays. It's a good idea to schedule your grand opening at least 30 days after your expected opening date.
-
See for yourself. Visit our show room to be sure the furniture you have selected is the same quality and design that the literature depicts.
-
Service. Purchase your salon equipment from a dealer that can and will service it. Do they demonstrate knowledge and a commitment to your success after the sale?
-
Other costs. There are other costs associated with furniture: delivery cost, installation cost, and storage fees. Make sure you receive estimates from your dealer
-
Check references. If you are purchasing from a dealer that offers design assistance, be sure to ask for and visit their references. This often will give you a quick view of the quality and type of work your dealer has done. Quality drives return on investment.
-
Remember when deciding what to purchase that Quality of Salon = Quality of Stylists = Quality of Clients = Quality of Income.
-
Following these basic steps will insure that your new salon will be a less stressful and more productive experience.
