What would you do, if your entire salon staff, or several of your top stylists walked out - quit, told you to "shove-it?" Then opened a salon across the street - or in your immediate neighborhood? If you’re anything like the rest of us you’d probably have heart failure! After you caught your breath, you’d ask yourself why you didn’t prepare for this financial disaster! ("How could they do this to me?") Actually, what could you have done in the past to safeguard your business assets and your staff? Nothing! All you could do was be a "good boss," and hope they didn’t walk out. Hope, was all we salon owners had. Until now ...

Now there are new "iron-clad" contract/agreements - upheld in court - to protect salon owners from the eventuality of a stylist "walkout." Legal binding agreements to safeguard you from losing the time, advertising, promotional money, and training invested in staff/employees. Seems like just when you start making money on them, they leave to rent a station, or for a higher percentage at another salon. Worse yet, they get together in the "back room" with other staff members and plan to open their own salon - and they take their clients with them! Salon clients! Clients the we’ve help them build while working in our salon!

No one says they should never leave to start their own business - that's the American way - but it's only right that we get our investment in them back! Now we can protect ourselves, our business, and our investment in staff, with thoroughly researched legal and binding contracts. A contract for present stylist/employees, a contract for assistant/trainees, and even a contract for booth-renters. But, before I invest in anything, I always ask myself (and so should you); "...what’s in it for me!" Listed below are just 24 topics covered in report, and valid reasons why you need these contracts for your salon. What they will do for you as a salon owner, and for your peace of mind. These contracts are reliable, 100% guaranteed, and they work!

Over $12,000.00 was spent on court trials, hearings, attorneys fees, in testing and proving the legality of these contract/agreements. Some $4,000.00 alone was spent in attorney research, typing and retyping of these agreements. They were written, researched and rewritten eight times over a nine year period, before being used - and upheld - in court. We all know how hard it was in the past to make stylist contracts "stick." That’s all been taken care of now.
