franchise partner responsibilities
Your franchise partner responsibilities don’t have to be overwhelming. With few to no employees, owning a My Salon Suite franchise gives you the freedom you want and the earnings you deserve.

-
joining a community
When you decide to run a salon suite franchise, it’s important to remember you are joining a community of committed and passionate professionals. From our franchise partners to our Members, passion is always a constant at My Salon Suite.
We carefully designed our systems to support the growth of our partners, no matter how far they want to go. Our franchise suite model has shown its strength for successful growth through the prosperity of our franchise partners owning and developing multi-unit stores. This affords our franchise partners the confidence necessary to plan and expand their businesses.

understanding your franchise partner responsibilities
As a My Salon Suite franchise owner, you’re responsible for more than collecting rent. Your franchise partner responsibilities include the following:
- Recruiting Members
- Retaining a high occupancy rate
- Managing all financial procedures
- Establishing ties to your local community
- Selecting and implementing marketing plans
- Working with Suite Management Franchising to grow the company
franchise owners work 5 – 10 hours per week
Because salons are run by experienced full-time manager and occupied by salon professionals with business ownership experience, they do not require constant franchise partner presence once occupancy is stable.
-
franchise earning potential
My Salon Suite is ideal for people who enjoy their current incomes but are tired of the demands of such work schedules. A salon suites franchise attracts franchise partners looking to supplement their existing income while also taking advantage of a semi-absentee lifestyle. Many franchise partners report they are able to maintain both their existing career and their franchise operation. While many multi-unit franchise partners report having the opportunity to step away from their previous career and have their franchise operations be their primary source of income. *this would be a great placement for John Ludden’s testimonial
The primary income source for our franchise partners is the rent collected from Members. It works a lot like an apartment complex. Of course, rent, size and occupancy also matter. These factors contribute to your net profit. However, it’s My Salon Suite that provides all the tools you need for your franchise to thrive.
Discover how these critical numbers are performing at corporate, associate, and franchised stores at the table below. This information is summarized from Item 19 of our Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
