SOUTH ORANGE, NJ, June 05, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- "If future hair salon owners learned how to think like CEOs in high school, more would thrive instead of struggle with their businesses," said author and consultant Veronica Woods. Woods, CEO of My Salon Scoop Consulting, will raise money for the Network For Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) New York Metro and celebrate the launch of her new book, "The A-List Salon: Insider Secrets of How Profitable Salons Wow Their Clients Every Day," at a private book launch event on Monday, June 10, 2013 at Hair Rules Salon in New York City.
In her new book, The A-List Salon, Woods interviewed 16 salon owners recognized by organizations such as Salon Today Magazine, Intercoiffure, and Ernst and Young, including Nick Arrojo of Arrojo Studio and Philip Pelusi of Philip Pelusi Hair Salons. "Every salon owner, whether behind the chair or not, can profit from this book's insights, takeaways and exercises to get to the next level through careful planning and execution," said Julie Shepperly, beauty professional and Business Development Director for Milady.
As part of the book launch, Woods has pledged $1 per book sold from May 1 through June 10 to the NFTE New York Metro office. Training over 70,000 students in the business startup process, NFTE New York Metro will host its upcoming Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge business plan competition on Tuesday, June 11.
