MANAGEMENT!!MANAGEMENT STYLE

! One of the biggest challenges that the Christian Grey Salon will face in managing is how to

operate an efficient and smoothly running salon. Like any business, Christian Grey Salon have to achieve

many things at once:

1. A simple, easy-to-use, yet powerful salon system

2. Enough computer terminals to support the work load

3. An ergonomic yet attractive salon layout

4. Comfortable modern salon furniture

5. In-house hair products and tools that your staff like to use and allow them to be creative

6. The right management style to manage your staff

7. Hire the right staff

8. Support, train, and motivate your staff, etc.

! In order to achieve the above-mentioned things at once, CGS (Christian Grey Salon) plans to use

an Affliative Management Style which has the primary objective to create a harmonious relationship

among employees and between manager and employees. We have a “people first, task second” manager,

which avoids conflict and emphasizes good personal relationships among employees, and with the help of

this management style, the CGS will be able to motivate employees by trying to keep people happy which

is good for the image of the business. The management system is effective especially when employees are

working together, the staff have experience and credibility, and a steady working environment.

! To develop the staff’s skills, as one of the business’ management style, we will make the product

companies to work for us. There are lot of great companies in the beauty industry, who do not only want

to supply their products to our salon , but also who will provide our salon with first class customer service

and support us for as long as we use their product. These suppliers want to ensure us to use their product

to its fullest potential in our salon, they are also very used to to giving away free product in order to gain

the business as their client. They will:

– offer prompt salon training to all the staff who will be using their product,

– be available to provide the salon with support when we need it, during all of our operating

hours,

– have very high customer service standards – this will be clearly evident to the salon, right from

when we made the initial inquiry with them about their product

– provide high quality information in all their sales brochures, company website, instructions and

any other extra valuable information they provide us to help your business succeed and to create

an image to customers.

– sponsor or organize conferences packed with information about how to be more successful with

our salon business.

! In managing a salon business, CGS plans to use a salon management software which can give the

owner the ability to run an extremely successful and profitable salon. There are three vital elements to a

successful salon business, and these are profits, customers, and staff, so great care must be taken when

choosing the salon software that will run and manage CGS. It is the most important piece of equipment in

the salon, which can oversees many or in some cases all aspects of the business:

!1. A good support system. This is a feature that is often overlooked, but if you ever have a problem

with your software it suddenly becomes important. At minimum you want access to a support

system through the phone and/or instant email, with a hopefully same-day reply. Also be prepared

to deal with inexperienced helpers and IT geeks on some so called Help Desks & Support Centres

where the software provider "outsources" the support responsibilities to an independent company

of usually non industry supporters. Best of all is a personalized support system, in which you are

given support directly from the software suppliers & programmers.

!

2. Ease of Use. Check out the screen-shots, or ask for a demo. It’s probably not just you and your

managers that will be using the Salon Management software; your therapists, stylists, receptionist

and juniors must also be able to use the software easily and quickly. Basically, by looking at any

screen and asking yourself what you want to do, it should be blindingly obvious, or it’s just not

simple enough. PLUS most commands used by staff should be single-key commands, not a

complicated and laborious route to for example charge a customer for their appointment.

!3. Customer Management. Managing a salon or spa with software will revolve around the clients

you are serving, and the software you choose must be up to the task. Client contact details,

treatment or service history, client comments and warnings, preferred products, even the way they

prefer their tea or coffee should all be able to be accessed at any point during the transaction.

Loyalty programs and VIP Card clubs are a an absolute necessity, as is a referral tracking system.

!4. Appointment Book. This will be the hub of your daily activities, so this needs to be clear,

simple and easy to use. Look for features like walk-ins, staff availability for bookings,

appointment monitoring systems, appointment confirmation (via SMS). A multiple view

appointment book would be the superior choice, as it allows you to group operators and rooms

into specific views.

!5. Staff Management. Whether you have one staff member or fifty staff members, your salon

software should provide a variety of features for staff management. Commissions, hours worked

and roster, bonus incentives, Log in/Log Out, security, appraisals and reviews, performance

reports (including daily, weekly, yearly reports on sales, appointments, re-bookings, up selling

etc), this is the bare minimum your software should do for you.

!6. Products and Stock. Stocktaking can be a real headache, but your salon management software

will be quietly working away in the background, adjusting your products and stock as

transactions and appointments take place. Good software will offer faultless automatic updating

of stock lists, automatic stock takes, print out reports for you to check, print out orders for

suppliers, track products and payments, and more.

!7. Point of Sale (POS). As this is the point that you make PROFITS, it’s important that this

feature of your salon management software runs smoothly and without errors. Modern sales

require eftpos and credit cards, as well as cash sales. Discounting, special prices and packages,

and gift vouchers will also need to be available through your software. Barcoding can make POS

quicker, and some software comes with barcode-label printing and barcode scanners.

!8. Reports and Finances. Comprehensive reporting is vital for salon owners and managers to

effectively run and manage a profitable business. Staff, suppliers, customers, transactions, sales

and profits, accounts, bonuses and commissions, and time periods are just a few of the parameters

good salon software will enable you to access and sort to produce accurate and useful reports and

accounting.

!9. Marketing. ‘Total Management’ style salon software will allow you to create and implement

marketing strategies and materials using your client base. You should be able to sort your client

base by entering specific search terms; for example all customers who have facials but never

waxing, or all customers who like certain products, so that you can cross-sell and up-sell.

Birthday vouchers and referrals are other profitable marketing devices that high-quality salon

management software should come complete with. Marketing is an extremely important feature

of any successful business, and with the right materials and the right target market (using your

software) you can extract the ultimate profits from your existing customers as well as improving

new client and returning client numbers.

! CGS will not risk in losing our customers, frustrating our staff, and flushing profits down the

toilet. By checking that our chosen salon management software has these 9 basic factors, we are hopefully

greatly reducing any possible future risk to the owner and salon business. Finding a correct salon

management system will be beneficial for the owner and staff in enjoy working in a stress-free, smooth-

running and very profitable salon far into the future.

sell.

!3. Hands are a part of our own fashion statement. Hands and fingernails must be clean and

well groomed at all times.

appearance in your dress, hairstyle and make-up. The reason for our dress code is to

aid in creating a fashionable image for our salon.

set future directions of the salon.

!3.1 RECEPTIONIST/CASHIER

A salon receptionist reports to the salon's manager and answers the telephone, schedules

appointments, greets customers, explains services to callers and visitors, and operates a cash register.

Because the receptionist is usually the first person a customer encounters at the salon, she is responsible

for creating a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. For this reason, she is held accountable for the

entire reception area, including its arrangement, organization and cleanliness. The receptionist, being the

cashier should receive payment by cash, check, credit cards, vouchers, or automatic debits, issue receipts,

refunds, credits, or change due to customers, and count money in cash drawers at the beginning of shifts

to ensure that amounts are correct and that there is adequate change.

!3.2 RECEPTIONIST/CASHIER POLICIES

New Clients Policy

! New clients should receive the royal treatment immediately. Welcome them in a friendly manner

to the salon and offer him/her the opportunity to tour the salon. The purpose of the tour is to help the

client feel more comfortable and relaxed. New clients are our best means of advertising. New clients are

to be completely finished, do the little extra things for the first time clients. Add value. Continue this type

of attitude each time the client visits the salon.

!Procedure

1. Treat all clients as your personal guest and truly listen to their needs.

!2. Whenever possible greet clients at the front receiving area if you cannot have your

assistants do it for you. Instruct the client to change into a smock if necessary and direct

him/her to the changing area as well as to the shampoo area.

!3. During conversation with the client always cross sell. Make sure that you provide him/her

with information about our services, skin care, nail care special techniques, and offer

helpful suggestions and information.

!4. When you have finished with the client, escort him/her to the receiving area to complete

the transaction. Turn in your client ticket and ensure that it is filled out legibly and

completely. Express your thanks and extend an invitation to the client to return. Give

them promotional literature for the products that had been discussed and ask him/her to

recommend your services to a friend if they liked what you did.

!5. Offer the client three (3) business cards for friends and family.

!6. Assist the client with putting on his/her jacket or sweater.

!4.1 STYLIST AND TECHNICIAN

Hairstylists, nail technicians, color specialists, estheticians, trichologists and makeup artists

commonly work as peers within a salon, reporting to the manager, though some organizations have senior

and junior-level stylists or technicians, based on experience or tenure. Each performs his own specialty

service and recommends the services his peers provide, as his customers require.

!4.2 STYLIST AND TECHNICIAN POLICIES

Code of Professionalism

As a Salon professional you are:

* Caring & open minded.

* Non-judgmental.

* A team player who can put ego aside in order to contribute to the salon as a team.

* Balanced in your work and professionalism.

* An avid listener.

* An excellent communicator.

* Willing to learn, grow, and succeed.

* Willing to make a contribution.

!Guidelines to Professionalism

1. Listen to the client. This is an important skill to learn and invaluable once we master it.

When you listen to the client you will know what their needs are.

!2. Service. Service your client to the best of your ability at all times and never deny your

client the proper amount of service time.

!3. Consult. Always consult with your client prior to any service. Make sure the client

understands the cost of any service he/she request or is being recommended by the stylist.

In doing so, you establish good communication and avoid costly mistakes and

misunderstanding. A professional consultation will always foster a good relationship with

your client.

!4. Teamwork. Cooperation and teamwork with your colleagues at the salon is paramount to

success. Help your co-worker whenever possible, irrespective of their level of expertise

within the salon. Each individual member of the salon is an integral part of the team.

Without each member pulling his/her weight, success will elude you.

!5. Avoid gossip between clients and or members of staff. It is negative and detracts from the

professionalism we are striving to maintain. To participate in gossip is to allow negativity

to enter into your work. Negativity threatens the growth, prosperity, and harmony of our

organization. Do not allow it to continue. Report it to management if you feel you cannot

stop the situation. Be positive and proactive and not a complainer. Be proud to be part of

our team and this industry.

!6. Support. Be supportive of each other. Have respect for each other. You are more likely to

thrive in an honest and respectful environment than a negative one.

!7. Star. Your client is the star. Make him/her feel important. Take an interest in your client

and he/she will feel important. Keep conversation between staff to a minimum because it

can make the client feel unimportant.

!8. Language. Speak correctly at all times. Do not showcase yourself. Be humble, courteous,

and respectful at all times.

!9. Tips. Tips are accepted but not expected at our salon.

!10. Be professional. Once a professional, always a professional. If your client requests a

service that you have doubts may be suitable or correct for him/her, recommend the

service that you know is in the client’s best interest. If the client insists on having the

service and you feel after the consultation that the client is still unable to understand the

implications of what he/she is asking, seek support from your Manager or Owner. If the

service is still requested, please ensure that the client signs a release form.

!11. Communication. Good com-mu-ni-ca-tion is the key to mutual understanding between

the company and its employees/independent contractors. The responsibility for

communication is a two way street (employee/independent contractor to employer and

employer to employee/independent contractor.)

!

At Christian Grey Salon, we use an OPEN DOOR POLICY, which means that

our staff is free to meet with the Manager and or Owners for a personal and or private

discussion about any aspect of their work, for example, work conditions, grievances,

suggestions or personal matters. We will use our best endeavors to solve your problems

or direct you to the appropriate expert

!12. Bulletin Boards. This board is used to post announcements or notices regarding policies,

procedures, working conditions, meeting, price changes, and other matters relating to

your employment. It is important that you check this bulletin board on a daily basis so as

responsibility to know what is going on. If you would like a personal discussion time

with the management please schedule it through our front desk. You will be

accommodated.

!13. Your Own Ideas. While doing your work you may come up with ideas or another ways of

doing things. We welcome all suggestions as long as they are made in a professional and

friendly manner. Please write down your suggestions and relay them to the Salon

Manager. This will keep meetings from becoming grievance sessions.
