The challenge
Allana Parks, owner of Elixir Hair Studio in St. Albert, Alberta, faced significant challenges when it came to pricing services fairly while staying within market value.
She struggled to find a price structure that worked for her salon, and money seemed to be “flying out the door faster than it was coming in.”
The solution
When Allana discovered SalonScale, she saw it as the answer to her pricing problems.
With SalonScale, she could accurately calculate product costs, commissions, and other expenses, which let her create a transparent and fair pricing structure. Elixir Hair Studio moved to an hourly pricing model and started charging for the cost of materials separately.
The results
Since switching, Elixir Hair Studio’s profit has increased by an average of $1,000 per month. Allana reinvests it in the salon through education, products, and team-building activities.
We are averaging $1,000 per month in profit just by using SalonScale.
The new pricing structure brought financial stability, better decision-making, and control over the business’s variables. By pricing fairly and transparently, Allana has also strengthened her salon’s culture and built a sustainable business model for continued success.
Allana confidently recommends SalonScale, as the money saved and earned far outweighs the cost of using it.
