By focusing the spotlight on salon business and celebrating salon leaders, this competition always strives to raise the bar for our industry. As times change, the way the business world perceives success also is changing. While growth is still a good barometer for a healthy business, and we’ll still recognize fast-growing salons, we realize that it’s not the only measurement of success. For 2010, SALON TODAY will take the ST200 one step further by analyzing the best practices that lead to success and recognizing the salons who lead the way in these important areas. Some of the areas we’re targeting include: n PROFIT PRODUCERS: salons who lead in profit percentages and how they got there. n TOP BOSS: salons who develop the most attractive employee compensation, benefits and rewards programs. n FIVE-STAR SERVICE: salons who constantly raise customer-service standards and how they measure and train staff on practices. n MARKETING EXPERTS: salons who constantly develop the most creative and lucrative marketing programs. n TOP RECRUITER AND TRAINERS: salons with the strongest recruiting programs and best apprenticeship training programs. n GREEN TEAM: salons who embrace sustainable systems. n INVENTORY CONTROLLERS: salons who’ve developed the strongest inventory programs. n MERCHANDISING WIZARDS: salons who create the visual eye candy that sells the highest percentage of products and services. n RETAIL WONDERS: salons who’ve refined the retail process to pure art. n TECH TITANS: salons who best leverage technology to improve their systems. n THE PHILANTHROPISTS: salons whose charitable efforts not only show heart, they redefine business. As our editorial team spends the next few months reshaping the ST200 competition, we’ll be calling on salon leaders for help. Give some thought to what business practices you think best define salon success and the fairest way to measure those. Please e-mail Stacey Soble at ssoble@vancepublishing.com or call 805-709-1837 to share your ideas. For those of who have applied for the ST200 in past years, expect a very different application this summer. And for all of you who love to read the ST200 issue, expect next January’s to be full of the biggest, most forward-thinking business ideas yet!
