There is a moment every spring when you realize your skin has changed overnight. The tight, dry patches from winter start to ease. Your complexion looks a little more alive. But then, almost before you have had a chance to enjoy it, the heat of summer rolls in and everything shifts again. Oil production spikes, […]
Repeat customers generate 80% of salon and spa revenue even though they represent less than half of the client mix. This single statistic tells us a lot about what matters in the spa business. Retention, loyalty and trusted relationships drive growth more than a constant churn of new faces. Spa Inc’s recent article on the […]

You probably didn’t start it so you could become a full-time admin, tech troubleshooter, reminder-manager, inventory tracker and after-hours marketer.
