Who We Serve
Summit Salon Business Center has a deep, personal commitment to keeping salon, school, spa, and barbershop companies prosperous and profitable.

Success Stories

Chemistry Hair Salon
Meet Bryan, owner of Chemistry Hair Salon. Within their first year of implementing our systems, his salon DOUBLED its service dollars and TRIPLED retail sales! And that wasn’t the only benefit he saw - but we’ll let Bryan tell you about what he’s experienced himself.
Urban Betty
Chelle Neff of Urban Betty Salon in Austin, TX went from having only $2K in the bank to over $50k in just two months of implementing just ONE of our strategies. Eventually, they grew by 82% in only 3 years!
Jungle Red Salon
How would you feel if you suddenly moved your salon to a high-end area of town with high-end rent? Naturally, this would cause sleepless nights for many owners. But that’s not what happened to Lisa Travis, owner of Jungle Red Salon in Miamisburg, OH. Instead, her salon grew by 15% that year! Partly because she implemented strategies that led to her better connecting with her team. Watch as she details her experience. It will truly inspire you:
Gemini of Chicago
Meet the Kiorkis sisters, Owners of Gemini Of Chicago. Like many salon owners, they knew how to style hair, but next to nothing when it came to running a salon business. Because of this, they struggled with growth and sustainability. After just one year of implementing Summit Salon’s systems, they experienced an impressive 18% growth! Since then, they have maintained 15% growth each year.
Your journey toward your full potential starts here.
