Honestly. I am thinking about opening up a small nail salon in 2008. Is this still a good industry?

My salon will be alot different than your typical Asian owned salon. I will cater individually to each client. My focus is the overall well-being and relaxation of the client. I will focus on quality and the experience. Will people be open to this concept or do they really want the fast pace in-and-out system that the Asians use.Honestly.

Let me recommend that you talk to a business counselor before you do anything especially spend money. I'd call the local office of SCORE (go to http://www.score.org and input your zip code to find the chapter nearest you), the advice is FREE.





The counselor at SCORE will most likely advise you to write a business plan which is very good advice because it will force you to dig out all of the start up details and the costs of starting a nail salon and force you to also understand all of the aspects of this business including the customers you'll concentrate on (your market ) and how you'll go after them.





You'll need to register the business with your state controller's office and make sure that you have any city and county licenses if any are needed where you live. All of this will come out in a business plan.
