Spa Salon
Is it better to open a new day spa/salon or to purchase an existing spa?
What are the pros and cons to both sides?
As a rule, and exisitng business is less risky to acquire as opposed to a new business. This is because the clientele is already in place and the location has already proven itself. It’s nice to think “If I build it they will come”, but unless you have a great way to communicate (better and more compeling than your competitiors) that you even exist, you’ll have no customers on opening day. And what if your location turns out to be a mistake (next to a cement truck factory, for instance)?
The problem with an existing location is it may carry the stigma of the previous owners. So if you are acquiring the going concern of a successful business that you can make more successful, great, but if not, maybe not so great. You don’t want the spa that closed down because of a hepatitis outbreak or the one where some guy died in the hottub.
Spa Salon
What’s the best spa, salon, or massage treatment you’ve ever had?
What did you like about it?
Was it expensive? Was it worth the cost?
Has to be a deep cleaning facial…probably run you about anywhere from $60 (a cheaper spa) to $250 (at a higher quality place)
