Description

This is one of the most important conversations of the year.

The end-of-year rush is coming. Your books are filling, you’re gearing up for long days and your focus is on maximising revenue and fuller bank accounts. But while everyone’s eyes are on November and December, the smart salon owners are already planning for what happens after the rush.

Because here’s the truth: the quiet period in January and February isn’t a surprise it’s predictable. And yet, every year, too many salon owners go into those months unprepared, stressed and scrambling to pay themselves or cover bills.

This episode is your reminder to plan now so you’re not starting the new year behind.

We’ll talk about:
• Why October is the most important month for financial planning.
• The predictable “busy then broke” pattern and how to break it.
• What to plan for, from annual leave to tax bills so you can actually enjoy your Christmas break.
• The difference between starting January in panic mode vs. starting strong and in control.

This isn’t about doom and gloom, it’s about strategy. With a few smart moves now, you can make sure the holiday season sets you up for success instead of setting you back.

Tune in now to get ahead of the game, your January self will thank you.
