Thank you for purchasing my short guide for starting up your own beauty and holistic therapy company. I have been in the industry for a number of years now, having worked mobile, in salons and my own clinic which I run from home. I also teach beauty therapy via my own company.

I can fully appreciate the need for clear cut information, having had to start over three times now, due to salons I rented from being sold by their owners when the economy crashed, going from mobile to permanently based. Even from moving from one part of the country to the other. Beauty therapy is a great part time or full time role. It is what you make it. Mums use it for working around their children, and some people like me retrain wanting out of the corporate rat race to make their hobby a full time job.

This guide is not meant to be exhaustive in every aspect to consider. However, I remember how hard it was at the very beginning to get a list of items to check of the list of things to review and implement when building my first company.

Before you dive straight in, there is a little quiz at the end of this section which asks the following:

Why do you want to start your own beauty therapy company?

If you can answer this in about three or four bullet points without the first answer being huge income then you are ready to move on and start planning. If your answer was based on a large income, then I strongly suggest that you actually google how much a average therapist earns!

I will not hold back punches here throughout the guide, as there is no point in sugar coating something. I love this job, I love my clients, I love feeling it gives me getting up each morning and knowing that the world is my oyster. But I do not have millions sitting in the bank. So if you think being a therapist is the key to a big income, think again and really go back to my original question.

So with that out the way, here we go!
