Bedford Texas Suite Rental Salon Offers 5-Way Test to Know If You're Ready to Be a Beauty Business Owner

    FORT WORTH, TX, April 30, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Success as a beauty entrepreneur requires a set of attitudes and skills, according to serial entrepreneur Ron Sturgeon, who recently appeared on CNBC's hit show Blue Collar Millionaire. Before opening a chain of salons, Ron succeeded in a variety of automobile-related businesses. He has parlayed a $1500 inheritance into a business empire worth tens of millions.

"Being a successful business owner gives me the kind of freedom employees will never have," says Sturgeon, who started his first business, an auto repair shop, while he was still in high school. "I have a 5-part test that I use to predict who will be successful in our salon-suite rental salons," he added.

• Is the owner client focused? "Successful stylists know how to give white glove service and how to earn positive word of mouth," says Sturgeon. They ask for feedback and act on it, he added.

• Is she or he marketing savvy? Can the person build a book of business. Is she or he hustling to add clients and able to prospect effectively, online or in-person. "The thought that a person puts into marketing plans separates the successful owner from the person who doesn't make it," said Sturgeon.

• Does she or he have a good work ethic? When the chair is empty, the successful owner is out drumming up business. He or she takes a flyer to the local school for teacher appreciation day and makes something happen according to Sturgeon. The less successful salon suite renter does not keep regular hours or show up on time.

• Does she or he have positive dissatisfaction? "My old friend Dixon Thayer taught me about positive dissatisfaction," says Sturgeon. "Is the person motivated to want more even when things are going well. Do they push in a positive way to achieve excellence?"

• Can she or he read a balance sheet? "A lot of what you need to run a business is not taught in beauty school," says Sturgeon. "I always recommend beauty pros take a good course in accounting, so they know how to read a balance sheet and know and understand the key financials and the key marketing metrics," said Sturgeon. Working with a bookkeeper or taking a Cousera course like University of Illinois Understanding Financial Statements goes a long way to making the person business ready.
