Owner Qualifications: Successful owners are typically those with good leadership and communication skills. They are aware of the benefits of proven systems and processes and will eagerly follow them. They are also individuals who enjoy mentoring, coaching, establishing values and being great role models. Most Lash Artists are millenials, so being able to communicate with multiple generations is a plus. We have two different business model opportunities. Owners can be an 'owner operator' for those who want to be 'hands on' or an 'earned' semi passive model, for those who may want to keep their jobs and yet build wealth. In this model they will have a manager in the studio - typically a Lash Artist who is still lashing 70% - 80% of the time. We are very involved in helping find and train this individual for the owner. We have owners who check into the studio(s) once a week, month or quarter. About 10 hours a week may be required to review the financials and have a one on one meeting with the studio manager and staff if multiple studios exist.
