If your Salon hits a growth ceiling… It's because of you!
Clients are coming in, your team is busy, you’re finally profitable but you’re not sure if you should jump and recruit a new team member before you need it. If you recruit team members too early, your growth might slow down and suddenly you can’t afford to pay them OR you recruit too late and your team feels overwhelmed and overworked… whilst trying to train someone new.
It takes 3 months to recruit and train someone…
So, in a perfect world, you would recruit someone 3 months before you need them. And I know what you’re thinking… “Larissa, I can’t see the future!”. But actually, you can… sort of. Your numbers will always tell you what to do.
