Who has a full time manager?

We are just a single location salon, but I am thinking of bringing on a manager. Full time in the busy season, and part time in the off season. I haven't had any good applicants though. Does anyone else have a manager if you are a single location?

Busy season? You have lots of time to think about it.

Re: Who has a full time manager?

I would like to hire someone now and have them trained before the busy season next year.

Re: Who has a full time manager?

Why would a single salon need a manager???

Because I am here 24/7 right now, and I would like to start a family in the next year, which means I CAN"T be here this much.

Re: Who has a full time manager?

If you pay a real manager what they're worth, there won't be much much left over.

Re: Who has a full time manager?

I would hire some employees and then possibly promote them to manager. Its hard to bring in someone new, never worked in the industry before, and throw them into management. Take applications, maybe run some ads, and just go from there. You have plenty of time to find someone and get them trained in. Just don't let your labor costs run sky high though, for a single location normally you don't need a full time manager with the owner being full time.

Re: Who has a full time manager?

I have just a single location, too and I am here full time. I have a girl that has been with me for 2 years and she is awesome. When I needed some help this summer, I let her hire who she wanted and then SHE trained them. Being here all this time she knows my expectations and whenever the new girls messed up, I just went to her and she went to them. I called her the "mgr "and she was content with that. SHe knows I pay her more because she has been here so that seemed to satisfy her. That and the title. There are people out there that are motivated by things besides money. Just the title "mgr" does it for her. I am very good to her, and visa versa.
