The Foundations guarantee
Your build pays for itself in 45 days, or you don't pay.
$1,500 THE BUILD $3,990 WHAT THE MATH SAYS, BY DAY 45 600 past clients × 7% come back × $95 average ticket = $3,990 Guaranteed: $1,500. Or your deposit back.

If the win-back doesn't book at least $1,500 in appointments within 45 days, your $500 deposit comes back and you keep everything. Live in 14 business days from full access or the balance is waived. Delivered as scoped or the balance is waived. Win-back guarantee applies to businesses with 600 or more past clients on file.

The add-on

You can leave the new clients on the table.
Most businesses do.

Foundations stops the leaks and brings back the clients you already had. It's not built to find you new ones.

If you're fine with that, skip this. If you have empty hours on a Tuesday to fill, you need the growth engine.

The growth engine
Ads
$5001 time, plus your ad budget
  • Instagram and Facebook ads set up and running on your own budget. We suggest at least $300 a month
  • Tracking installed so you know what each new client cost, to the dollar
  • 1 campaign written and launched. You keep the ads and can rerun them
  • 1 recorded training on reading the numbers and pausing or restarting ads yourself. 1 and done. You run it after that
Ask about the growth engine Included in Operations. Not for you if you'd rather not spend on ads, and that's a fine answer.
When Foundations isn't enough

2 more ways to work with us.

Foundations is the first step. It fixes the leaks.

These 2 rebuild the business underneath them: the operating model, the org structure, staffing, compensation, the customer lifecycle, the protocols and the handbook.

We diagnose what's broken. We build the fix. We teach you to run it, watch you run it, then we leave. The only difference between them is how much of your business we rebuild.

Tier 2
Operations
The full operating build, across 6 domains.
Custom pricingQuoted in writing after we talk · 60 to 180 days · 1 location
Right for you if: the systems aren't the only problem. The menu, the pricing, the team and the marketing all need rebuilding together, and you're ready to have the whole business taken apart in front of you. Not for the faint of heart.
Everything in Foundations, plus
  • Technology and software. The stack chosen, configured and connected: booking, payments, deposits, calendar, reporting, and the integrations between them
  • Online presence and reputation. Google Business Profile built out properly, social profiles aligned, reviews arriving on their own
  • Growth engines. Local SEO and AEO, Meta and Google campaigns built and handed over running, an influencer approach that isn't free work for nothing, and partnerships with the businesses your client already stands in front of
  • Operating model, protocols and the handbook. Menu architecture and the copy that sells it, durations, price tiers, add-on ladders, deposit and cancellation policy, the SOPs for every station, and the handbook that makes them stick. The protocols that make a Tuesday run like a Saturday
  • Org structure, staffing and compensation. The org chart the business actually needs, roles mapped to the new service model, the staffing model set against real demand, and the compensation model with its tiers: commission, day rate, hybrid, booth rent, and when each one is right. Payroll and scheduling software stood up, and the questions to ask a candidate so you can judge fit yourself
  • Customer lifecycle and comms. From first search to 10th visit: booking, arrival, checkout, rebooking, win-back, mapped and built. SMS and email built as sequences rather than blasts, social that answers rather than broadcasts, and campaigns structured to build a list instead of buying a crowd
1 build at a time. Next opening: early 2027.
Tier 3
Strategy
Strategy and consulting.
Custom pricingQuoted in writing after we talk
Right for you if: you don't need something built. You need to decide something, and you need someone who's actually sat in your seat.
What this is for
  • Should I open a 2nd location, and what has to be true first
  • Why am I full and still not profitable. The pricing and margin question most owners never get answered
  • How should I structure the team and pay them. Org structure, staffing model, compensation tiers, the handbook, and what to change first
  • Turning around a business that's losing money or losing staff
  • Repositioning into a different price bracket or a different client
  • Getting ready to sell, and what a buyer will actually look at
  • The deliverable is a decision and the reasoning behind it, not a system
Scoped and quoted in writing, never on the call.
Why I'm allowed in your business at this level

Tiers 2 and 3 aren't software setup. They're the structure of the business underneath it: how the work is designed, who does it, what it costs, and whether the numbers still hold when you change any of it. That's been my job for 15 years.

I've spent those 15 years in organizational development, people architecture, systems design and strategic workforce planning, inside companies far bigger and far messier than a salon. Designing how work gets done. Deciding which roles should exist and which shouldn't. Building the pay and staffing models that hold when a business grows, and rebuilding the ones that didn't. Then I opened a salon and did every bit of it again with my own money on the line, which is a different kind of education.

Tier 2 is that experience applied to your menu, your team, your protocols and your marketing at once, as one system rather than four fixes. Tier 3 is that experience applied to a single decision you can't afford to get wrong. When the stakes are that high, this is the seat you're hiring.

These 2 aren't for most businesses.

If you're ready to go deeper and find the root of the problem, not the symptom, this is the door.
