Most businesses lose money on stock.    In big businesses such as supermarkets it's called shrinkage and these companies recover those losses in their price increases.   In hair and beauty salons it's called LOST PROFIT which you cannot recover just by increasing your prices.   The GOOD NEWS is losing money on stock is totally avoidable, but can only be controlled if you know how much stock you need to run your business. That requires both a STRONG discipline and a GOOD stock control system.    Consider the following ESSENTIAL strategies to avoid losing money on stock:   Keep your cost prices updated by checking the price on your invoices every time you receive new stock. Keep the RSP's (recommended selling prices) updated every time suppliers increase their prices.   TAKE STOCK REGULARLY, Take Stock Regularly, take stock regularly - (GET THE MESSAGE!).   Calculate MODEL LEVELS and RE-ORDER LEVELS on EVERY item of stock you use.   Check any discrepancies after every stock take (if there are any).   Use the STOCK BIN to control 'per millimetre use' and to transfer retail products to salon use.   Before placing orders, CHECK suggested re-order quantities in you STOCK MOVEMENT REPORT (if you're not selling it, you shouldn't need to reorder it!).   Get into the habit of regularly checking your FORWARD COVER report. i.e. based on your current stock on hand, how much forward cover do you have based on the sales or use-up-rate of each item you stock Check your profit & loss via your income statement to see exactly how much stock you are spending for the amount of turnover you are generating Check out the intelligent stock-control-system on MySalon Software Contact us: Visit us on: www.mysalonsoftwareint.co.za Email: info@mysalonsoftware.co.za Email:   terry@mysalonsoftware.co.za   | Tel:  083 650 0952 Email:   sune@mysalonsoftware.co.za   | Tel:  083 484 2960

Wondering whether a contract on board ship would be the right career move for you? Here are five reasons why you should. 1: Supercharge Your CV If you are an ambitious hairstylist and you want to further your career and work in top salons worldwide, then doing a cruise ship contract is the best move you can make. This is because working on board ship proves so much about you as a hairstylist. It proves that you have excellent technical skills and are a quick learner, that you are versatile, can deal with a wide variety of clients, that you can cope with hard work, that you are a great team player, and that you are able to present yourself, and promote yourself well.   2: See the World Cruise ship hairdressing is hard work, but the payoff is that you work in a gorgeous salon with an incredible view, and that during your contract you will have a chance to explore every port the ship anchors in, during your days off. The chance to have unforgettable experiences in the most exotic locations, will be yours. For your first contract you will be assigned to a ship but after that if you want to choose a certain location, you can request it. This way you can see all the parts of the world you’ve dreamed of travelling to – while getting paid.   3: Need a Career Change The great thing about cruise ship hairdressing is that qualified hairstylists from18 years old are accepted on board, there are no upper age limits. Whether you’ve just completed your hairdressing qualifications but don’t want to settle in a salon yet, or whether you have been established for years, but feel it’s time for a change and you need to shake your life up and reboot your career – your skills and energy will be equally welcome! London Wellness Academy always strives to place you on a ship where you will be happiest and do best, and there are plenty of ships to suit every age and stage of hairdressers. 4:  Need a Cash Nest Egg Working on board ship allows you to earn great money, tax free, and with very few costs. The only money you spend will be on adventures, days off, and treating yourself to clothing or souvenirs. Your accommodation, transport and meals are all paid for. Whether you would like to pay off debt faster or save up in order to put a deposit down on a house or a car, or equip your own salon, working at sea allows you to achieve your financial goals quicker than you would be able to achieve them on land.   5: Dare Yourself to Take the Challenge Life is all about taking opportunities and chances, and sometimes people can dream about something for years, but never pluck up the courage or have the motivation to do it. Embarking on this adventure will be the experience of a lifetime, and it will prove to you that you can follow your dreams and see them through. This will build huge character and will allow you to believe that anything is possible!   So why not take the plunge and set yourself on a career path that will change your life!   Sign up  HERE  or email Nadine  nadineb@londonwellnessacademy.com  or Daniella  daniella.diem@londonwellnessacademy.com   Find out more by heading to  www.londonwellnessacademy.com   Follow us on social media Facebook   |  Instagram
