I Opened My Salon When I Was 20. Here’s What I Got Wrong.

from Salon Owners Collective

For the first time ever, Larissa Macleman is sharing the founder story behind opening her salon at 20 years old  - and the hard lesson that changed the way she saw salon growth forever. She was the best stylist in the salon. Fully booked. Highest revenue column. Working harder than everyone else. And somehow… she was taking home the least. In this episode, Larissa opens up about the moment she realised the business could not outgrow her while she was still behaving like the busiest stylist in it. Because the truth is: The version of you that built the salon is not always the version that can scale it. This is the episode for every salon owner who feels stuck carrying the pressure, holding the standard, and wondering why growth still relies on them. 3 Reasons Why Every Salon Owner Should Listen ✨ The #1 mistake that keeps you trapped behind the chair ✨ Why salons start breaking as they get bigger ✨ The decision every Salon CEO must make before the business can move toward $1M 👉 Click here to watch the $1 Million Salon Growth Plan now Want us to build your own custom million-dollar salon roadmap?
