Running your salon week to week can be stressful as it is...
But throw in a burst pipe, a staff injury, a freak storm, unexpected morning sickness... any one of these can curveball your cashflow for weeks.
In this episode, I’m not handing you a shiny new tactic. Instead, I’m putting on the big-sister / risk mitigation hat and asking:
Could your business survive a completely random shutdown?
We'll talk about,
• Cyclone Alfred – the real-life examples from SEQ salons that had to close with only days’ notice in the first half of this year
• Why “it won’t happen here” is wishful thinking – fires, leaks, power outages, staff on light duties… stuff can happen anywhere.
• The Profit-First buffer – how one client weathered a six-week closure without panic because she’d banked the cash first.
• Your mini-prep checklist – 3 quick questions to gauge your ability to weather any storm (literally or metaphorically) in your salon.
This episode is an important reminder (maybe a practical wake-up call) to build the financial padding that keeps a bad week from turning into a business breaker.
Hit play, take notes, then check your cash buffers.
If you realise you’d be sweating after two quiet weeks, let’s talk.
