While these are all brilliant pieces of software, they were all too complicated and encompassing for a simple
hairdresser like me with limited computer experience. I needed something where all I had to put in
was my business expenses, the costs of my services and how many items I predicted to sell in a set period of
time and have the system do all the work for me.
Not finding what I wanted drove me to build the “SMART SALON BUSINESS PLAN SOFTWARE”
You need a step-by-step guide to fully understanding everything it takes to put your business together, track
its growth and ensure its survival. Many hairdressers devote too much time to thinking about (and
discussing) their amazing salon concept, while too few bother with the formality of a business plan.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again (with thanks to the inimitable J. Woden): ‘Failure to prepare is preparing
to fail.’ For most things in life you need a plan – you wouldn’t drive your car somewhere new without a road
directory, so avoid heading into uncharted financial territory without a business plan.
When I decided to open my first salon I was flat broke, in debt and had nothing but a great business idea.
The bank turned down my first loan application and, because my parents were far from wealthy, my father
approached his boss for a loan on my behalf. It was then, at the age of 20, that I learned the importance of
a structured business plan. My father’s boss made me put my idea down on paper. At the time I thought this
was lame but, as it turned out, he did me the biggest favour of all time.
And a plan is absolutely vital if you’re seeking finance. No lender (repeat: NO lender), will give you money
without evidence that you’ve done the research and know what you’re doing – and that’s a carefully
constructed, well-written business plan.
I would never go into business without one. It doesn’t make sense to stare risk in the eye without a plan of
action. It helps you set goals, determine the turnover necessary to make a profit, better understand
financial systems and procedures, assess your marketing needs and establish operational strategies that
get you where you want to go.
At times, putting a business plan together can be the most annoying and frustrating activity you’ve ever
undertaken. It will stretch your imagination and test your commitment and motivation. I’ll warn you in
advance, if you don’t feel fed up and frustrated at some stage of the process, then you’re not going about it
properly. If and when it happens, say to yourself: ‘It’s dangerous when things always go the way I want,
because then I’m not being challenged.’ The upside is, you’ll have to take an objective look at your business
concept, assess its (and your) strengths and weaknesses, and recognise the challenges you’re likely to face in
the future and might otherwise have overlooked!
I wish you all the business success, growth and development you ultimately desire.
Good luck!
