How to start your own beauty salon - franchise with Guinot

Hi. Thanks very much for taking the
time to watch this short film today Guinot is the number one professional
skincare brand in France and is available in over 70 countries worldwide. We are one of a very few privately owned companies operating in the skin care sector, and in
fact we design and manufacture all of our own products and we also design our
own treatment protocols and we have our own painted machines to offer our
clients the very best treatments that are available with first-class skincare
products and cover every need of your clients, that's from toners moisturisers
serums and sun care, right the way through to a complete makeup range. Now
it's this position that led us to set up the first beauty franchises in France
many years ago and today we have over a hundred and fifty franchises trading but
now it's time to bring this franchise into the UK and start our development
here.

The beauty industry itself last year was worth estimated 200 million
pounds and growing however it is a very competitive fragmented industry, and in order for a salon to succeed it has to have the right brand
behind it. Many people aspire to be their own boss but it can be very daunting
prospect because of the obvious risks involved. At Guinot we make a very
clear and structured pathway to becoming your own boss through our franchise
opportunity. We want you to join in our success and capitalise on the virtues of
a global market leader, whilst running a thriving beauty salon.

We also offer regional training, and
specifically for franchise they are fully supported with their own dedicated
regional trainer. We have a trainer that will come and see you as and when
you need to be themes are depending on the team's requirements and the business
needs then we would adapt treatment plan and training plan for them as well. On an
annual basis we train up to 4,000 therapist the year, however this is
growing every year as well. We've just recently incorporated e-training within our initial training courses and that will also be utilised on-site; so
with the e-training appt you have all of the videos of every single treatment knowledge on there as well, so not only can they use it when they are here on training,
when they go home, they've got their own mini trainer on their tablet.

And
obviously from a product perspective they do what they say they do, so when
the therapists come in and use the products they start to love them, play with them,
enjoy using them, and then encourage the client to use it when they go back to work It's a global brand so marketing is
worldwide and we have very close relationships with our marketing
colleagues in Paris. As a sales and marketing team we see our role purely to make your lives as easy as
possible and make your salon as successful as possible and we provide
you with all the collateral, all the know how, all the implementation you need to
make your salon business a success. So we're ready to expand our franchise here in
the UK now, and if you want to join us you don't necessarily have to have
beauty industry experience either, because we can help you with every step
of the way, from business planning right through to your initial training and
ongoing support.
