In today’s episode, I’m coming to you buzzing with excitement because I've been having some really energising conversations with clients who are seeing major shifts in their salons — we’re talking busy books, higher client spend, and a feeling that things are finally turning a corner. But the real reason for this episode? We're diving into something I’ve weirdly never dedicated an entire episode to before — the end of quarter Profit First process. And honestly? It’s such a feel-good part of the journey. I walk you through: • What happens at the end of each quarter in Profit First • Why this is the moment we get to increase our pay and profit • How we adjust our percentages to reflect the progress we’ve made • What a profit draw is, and how it’s different from your regular pay • Real examples of how my clients (and I!) are using our profit draws Whether you’re in the “things are fine but I want great” stage, or you’re still working your way out of financial stress, this episode will help you understand why this process actually works — and why the end of quarter should feel like a celebration. P.S. If you’ve read the book or started implementing Profit First on your own, this is your gentle nudge to check your percentages and reflect on how far you’ve come.

Is a break-even analysis really necessary for your salon? In this episode, we break down why understanding your break-even point is crucial for financial clarity and long-term profitability. Many salon owners have a rough idea of their costs, but without a structured break-even analysis, they risk underestimating what’s truly needed to keep their business running, thriving and most importantly profitable. I’ll walk you through the real benefits of calculating your break-even, common mistakes salon owners make, and how you can use this tool to set realistic revenue targets that ensure you cover expenses and make a profit.
