Re: When you say its slow.....

The last week I have be running about 45-65 per day and this has been a major slow down. But I am thankful that the slow season has just now hit me vs last year it hit me in June. I look at it this way, there are days I make some money and have 65 customers coming in or 45 customers and make a lot of money. I would rather see less customers and more money in my pocket, but it doesn't always happen like this. In July and the 1st two Sunday's I am closed and this helps a little with the money flow on Saturday's and Monday's.

I started out working 50 hours a week but found out that with a husband and three kids, it was too much so we backed off to 45 hours per week. Those are just my required hours and don't include the time I spend for other stuff like if I go to buy supplies, do evaluations and the things I do that I take upon myself on my days off....going for change, etc. Also doesn't include hours I work covering for when employees call in (like today for instance...I'm doing a 12.)

Re: When you say its slow.....

Summer used to be fairly good, my big salon used to do 150 - 200 people daily thru mid August. Now it's 80 - 100. That sucks with my expenses.
