A Sense of Community

Providing a community for health-and-beauty professionals is what Encore Salon Suites is all about. The emerging concept offers a place where personal-care professionals can lease a private space while having a shared community area for bonding and socialization.

Encore Salon Suites is a franchisee’s dream. This business model is semi-absentee or owner/operator with high profitability margins, without the hassle of employees or inventory. This concept is poised for growth in a recession-resistant and pandemic-proof industry.

From kids to seniors, people of all ages want to look good, and taking care of themselves is at the top of the list of necessary activities. As a customer enters Encore Salon Suites, they are greeted by fresh and clean décor and a digital directory that guides them to their appointment. Each suite operator is her or her own business and can run the business using their own systems and processes.

A Profitable Franchise Option

If you are in the beauty- and personal-care industry, this franchise option should be considered. As a franchisee, you lease out the other suites to various health-and-beauty professionals who are looking for that perfect space to be able to grow their businesses and establish themselves in the community. Suite occupants personalize their suite by creating their own design and furnishing it as they choose. Suite tenants can sell their own products and market their services as well.

Passive owners of Encore Salon Suites work to fill the suites with a variety of personal-care professionals. Once the suites are leased, franchisees identify one of the suite tenants as their on-site manager to handle the day-to-day matters, ensuring the salon runs efficiently. The return on investment (ROI) is the rent collected for each suite, based on the square footage, and rent includes utilities, Wi-Fi, laundry and cleaning, and maintenance of the common areas. This enables a franchisee with to attract successful and talented tenants.

Professionals Come Together

Who are the tenants of a suite? Cosmetologists, hairstylists, barbers, masseuses, colorists, aestheticians, manicurists, lash-and-brow specialists, and bridal-hair specialists, just to name a few. The brand prides itself on having a competitive, high-quality salon that creates a community of beauty professionals who encourage each other. One thing is certain: Talented professionals like to be surrounded by other successful professionals!

Are you wondering what would make the best space conversion for a suite? With the millions of commercial square feet available, Patrice McKinney, founder and CEO of Encore Salon Suites, said she believes that the best conversions happen in former medical office suites. The electrical and plumbing are often in place, and the offices are easily reconfigured into suites while still having the necessary common areas. McKinney also said that proximity to fitness centers is an added plus when choosing a location.
