eauty professionals have always seen
the value of having a private space to
perform services. No matter what your
specialty, the demand for a private and intimate
setting for your clientele is ideal, which makes the
suite concept ideal.
WHAT IS THE SUITE CONCEPT?
There have been many names for this fast-growing segment in
the industry. At the end of the day, though, the suite concept
simply means that you have your own private space to perform
your services—a suite of your own, whether you work at a spa or
own your own business.
Suite concepts traditionally provide you with a private space
where you hold the key. You pay weekly rent and receive maintenance
assistance from the property manager or shop owner. Having a suite
allows you the freedom from worrying about anything but getting
yourself established—and providing extraordinary service to your
clientele.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A SUITE?
When you own or rent a suite, you have a lot of flexibility. Following
are some of the options and benefits to think about when considering
the suite life.
