    About this audiobook

    Lead follow or get out of the way. Successful salon businesses don't just happen! They’re the result of a clear business vision, effective business management systems, people management systems and self management systems. If you really want to succeed start by understanding that you haven’t opened a salon, you have opened a business that happens to do hair. Begin by getting organised and developing the success systems needed.
