You know an Associate Program could help you grow your team. But then come the questions: Where do I start? Where do I find an associate? Who on my team is ready to become an educator?⁠
⁠
Those are some of the most common challenges salon owners face when building an Associate Program, and having the right systems in place can make those answers a whole lot clearer.⁠
⁠
In our free webinar, Nicole Mitchell and Kristi Valenzuela break down what it takes to build an Associate Program that supports your team and your business for the long term.⁠

Your salon is more than where you work. It’s an asset you’re building.⁠
⁠
And you don’t have to be thinking about selling to start paying attention to what that asset is worth.⁠
⁠
Understanding your salon’s value can give you a clearer picture of your profitability, uncover what’s helping or limiting your growth, and help you make smarter decisions about what comes next.⁠
⁠
Because knowing your value isn’t just about planning an exit. It’s about becoming a stronger owner today.⁠
⁠
Read the latest Better Your Best blog to learn why every salon owner should understand their business value and what actually drives it.⁠

What if one of the biggest things standing between you and a more profitable business is believing you’re allowed to build one?⁠
⁠
Urban Betty founder Chelle Neff gets candid about the mindset shift that came with growing from a booth rental salon to a three-location company trending toward $6.7 million this year, and learning that wanting profitability, security, and a legacy for your family is nothing to apologize for.⁠
⁠
In Episode 106 of SummitUp!, Chelle joins Blake Reed Evans to talk about the wins, the growing pains, and everything she learned while building Urban Betty from the ground up.⁠

Women don’t just have a seat at the table in this industry. They’re building the businesses, leading the teams, mentoring the next generation, and creating new tables altogether.⁠
⁠
Today, we celebrate the women across the Summit community and throughout the beauty industry who continue to lead, grow, and create opportunity for those coming next.⁠
⁠
Happy Women’s Equality Day. 🤍

An associate isn't just an extra set of hands.⁠
⁠
When they're helping elevate the guest experience and grow your income, they're becoming a valuable part of your business. And in return? You're giving them something just as valuable: the training, confidence, and career path to build a successful future behind the chair.⁠
⁠
That's what a strong Associate Program is designed to do. Create growth on both sides.⁠
⁠
Nicole Mitchell and Kristi Valenzuela dive deeper into building an Associate Program that works in our free webinar, Build Your Future Team, Scale Your Business.⁠

What does it actually mean to become a shareholder in a salon company?⁠
⁠
It’s more than an investment. It’s a seat at the table, a voice in where the company is going, and an opportunity to help build something bigger.⁠
⁠
In Episode 105 of the SummitUp! Podcast, Summit Coach Lisa Lipani joins Blake Reed Evans to talk all things shareholders, from identifying future partners and sharing decision-making to creating new opportunities for your people and building a business that can grow beyond you.⁠
