OUCH!!!
In a town of only 9,000 bodies I do not know how one can re-coup such an investment. I understand you already have 1200, but how many are repeats and pay each visit and buy each visit....
1200 out of 9000, just makes no sense. Industry stats show less than 10% would use a salon/spa...but regardless, what are your monthly expenses/overhead/franchise fee?

Personally, I think the 450K could have been spent better in another investment.
Good luck.
