Salon Price List Template: WSM named among 100 Fastest Growing Companies
We’re delighted to reveal that – thanks to our many hundreds of Inner Circle member salons around the world – Worldwide Salon Marketing has been named by Business Review Weekly among Australia’s top 100 fastest growing small to medium companies.
With average annual revenue growth of over 48% over three years, WSM was 74th on the list of the ‘Fast 100’ – in the worst economy the world has seen for 75 years.
(And aside from our Members, it’s in no small part due to a VERY dedicated and talented team here at head office, as well as our representatives in NZ and the USA)
The recognition is even sweeter, coming as it does after a horrible economic year. But it shows what can be achieved when you set out to do nothing but help salon and spa owners actually make some real money and start to pay themselves what they’re worth.
We’ve certainly come a long way since co-founder Jill Groves and I sat down in a spare room in my house five years ago and created the company from scratch.

Worldwide Salon Marketing: Hard to find Staff? Here’s how to get a flood of applications…
Peter Drucker is widely recognised as the world’s most famous business consultant, who declared that “Because its purpose is to create a customer, a business has two and only two functions: marketing and innovation. Marketing and innovation produce results. All the rest are costs.”
Which is perfectly true, and in the beauty business, one of those costs is unavoidable; staff to deliver the innovation (or service) to the customers your marketing is bringing in.
Aside from marketing issues, finding the right staff is by far the biggest challenge facing 99% of salon owners. Which is why we developed a unique way to at least partly solve that challenge, and it’s brilliantly successful.
The Worldwide Salon Marketing Staff Finder Service
“We’ve used this method twice… both times, we had inquiries from prospective staff members within minutes of placing the ad. In fact the first time we used it, we had no fewer than 47 applications within two weeks, and hired two fantastic new team members right off the bat!” says Rachael D’Aguiar of D’Aguiar’s Hair.Skin.Nails in Auckland, NZ
And this works no matter where you are in the world. (And it’s FREE for Inner Circle members.) Here’s how it happens…
Step #1: you download a Free Report in Word format. The report is titled
“The Crucial Questions You MUST Ask – and the Answers You Need – Before You Sign Up for Any New Job.”
Step #2: You modify the report to suit your salon, and email it back to us.
Step #3: We upload the report to a special web page we create for you.
Step #4: You run a classified ad in the employment section of your local paper, and/or online. This ad (we give you the wording) directs prospective staff to the website where they can enter their name and contact number, and only then download your Free Report.
Step #5: You get an instant email with that person’s contact details.
Bingo! You’ve instantly captured the names and contact details of anybody who is obviously wanting a change of job!
We provide this service free for Inner Circle members. Non-members pay $329 and they can run the ad for as long as a month.
