Do you love the idea of being your own boss, working in a relaxing environment, bringing joy to people on a daily basis, and having access to a whirlpool and masseuse at a moments notice? Well, who doesn’t, right?
There’s no doubt that the spa industry is a very exciting, and rewarding career choice, but do you really have what it takes to open and run a day spa yourself?
As with any small business, you must have an entrepreneurial spirit, which means you need to be a self-starter, decision maker, hard worker, well organized, like challenges, enjoy working with people, and a risk taker.
Whether you’re new to the spa industry or have been working in it for years, educating yourself in all aspects of owning and running a spa is crucial. This means making sure you get plenty of quality spa training and practical spa experience before you ever open the doors to your own spa. This includes understanding the business aspects of the spa industry, knowing how to staff your spa with qualified employees, creating an atmosphere that people want to go to, and developing a positive relationship with clients and the community.
