Salon Suite industry growth - It has been estimated that roughly 30-35% of all cosmetology professionals are currently operating independent of a traditional salon facility, but if industry growth continues, that number is expected to increase to  75% within the next five years.  The vast majority of these independent operators will be salon suites tenants, so the long-term opportunity for suites developers is outstanding. 
Salon suites facilities are difficult to plan and execute, but relatively easy to operate. Often, the difference between a successful business and a disastrous failure is in the planning, design and initial implementation work that is done before ever opening your doors for business.

A word about our competition - The partners at Suites Consulting Group have been involved in the salon suites industry as developers and operators longer than any of the franchises have been around. Years ago,  when we noticed these franchises start to pop up, we were mystified as to why ANYONE would buy one.  When we saw them continue to grow (there are at least 17 today), we decided to offer our services as a much more comprehensive, more thorough, more cost-effective and a math & data-based development solution that puts the interests of the developer's long-term success first. 

In recent years, we have seen other "consultants" pop up, but be aware of their experience and background.  Most of them have done no more than one or two, and some can provide no evidence that they have actually developed ANY. Almost all have attempted to become clients of SCG, but have been rejected for a number of reasons.  We average about nine to eleven open project development files at any one time, and have north of sixty completed. When you see a competitor's website copy ours word-for-word, or when their website displays images taken directly from franchise websites(!), it should provide some insight into what you can expect. 

Suites Consulting Group have been providing high quality salon suites consulting services to the industry for far longer than anyone, We have a long track record of success, and can provide the highest quality and cost-effective  solutions for your development as well. Compare and you''ll see for yourself.

If you have your heart set on buying a franchise and the subsequent additional costs they incur, there are at least 17(!) by our count operating today:  Sola, Phenix, Salons by JC, Salon Lofts, A Suite Salon, My Salon Suite, Studio Salons, Salon Spa Suites, Salon Plaza, Cirque Salon Studios, Image Studios 360, Salon Boutique, Universal Salons, Blue Lion Salon Studios, Mimosa Salon Suites and Salon Concepts.  Shop around, but why bother? You can accomplish the exact same objective at a fraction of the price. See how by clicking here.
