#416 - End Of Year Retail Strategy Every Salon Should Be Using

Are you maximizing your salon's profit potential, or are you unintentionally leaving thousands on the table? Did you know the retail inventory on your shelves right now could be costing you? I consider this a can't-miss, strategic episode, and one that you just can't afford to skip!  In this episode, I walk you through the critical, step-by-step exercise every single salon owner needs to complete before the year ends. This isn't just about counting bottles; this strategy will dramatically boost your tax savings, reveal the true health of your retail program, and instantly show you which products are dead weight and which are your Top 20 percent sellers. We'll also analyze your true sell-through rate and break down how retail commissions are crushing your net profit if you're over-stocked, and more.  Since we're at the end of another year, NOW is the time to learn how to turn your secondary revenue stream into a profitable, healthy arm of your business!  If you need a tool to keep your numbers (and business!) organized, you'll want to check out our Wealthiest Year Yet Planner.
