Reasons why you should rent a booth in a salon

In this article we will explain the benefits if you should rent a booth in a salon.  Granted, salon suite rentals are not for everyone, but it has become such a popular alternative to working in a beauty salon that it is worth considering. Call us if you have any questions at (817) 823-7105.

Why rent a booth in a salon

If you are tired of working for commissions in a beauty shops owned by someone else, a salon booth rental may be the alternative choice you should consider.  Of course, the other alternative is to open a small salon in your home, but that can be disruptive to home living and it also does not give the appearance of a first-class business, and in business appearances are important.

The advantage of a salon booth rental

Let’s begin with the obvious advantage, namely added income.  When you lease a salon suite, you are basically leasing a space for your own business.  Depending on who you rent from, most, or at least a portion, of your overhead costs are included in the salon suite rental.  You will be running a mini-salon with you as the primary owner, and the profits will be yours.  No more working for commissions; no more sharing of the profits with the owner taking the major split.

As a business owner, you will be in charge of management decisions.  Your success will be a direct result of your hard work and your business sense.  This is a powerful advantage, the feeling of self-worth, knowing you have made it on your own because of your work ethic and business smarts.

As a business owner you can name your own hours.  If you are a night person you can open your salon suite for business in the evening, or vice versa if you are a morning person.  Work whatever hours and days you choose; your future is in your hands.

The flip side of the salon booth rental debate

We would be remiss if we did not mention the drawbacks when you rent a booth in a salon.  You will be in charge of taxes.  You will be in charge of purchasing products to sell.  Every aspect of running a business will be yours, and quite frankly it is not an undertaking that every person excels at.  Are you that type of person, a self-motivator who does not need a supervisor to push you forward?  Only you know if you are capable of running a business, and only you know your level of motivation.
