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 staffs 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. Its 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 its 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, its 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, smoothrunning and very profitable salon far into the future.

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 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

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.

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 clients 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
not to be left out of any news or activities that may be important to you. It is your
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
