4 Profitable Salons in 3 Years: How This Hairstylist Turned Entrepreneur Is Building an Empire

<p>This conversation is with one of the boss ladies I respect the most and a local business trailblazer, Alicia Brown. Alicia is the co-owner of Honeycomb Salon and its sister sustainable salons &amp; day spas in Corvallis, Oregon. Alicia is my former boss turned friend (we’ll share a bit more of that story in today’s episode), and in just 3 years of opening the doors to the first Honeycomb, now has 4 salons supporting 60 employees. In an industry where profitability evades most salon owners for years, Alicia has defied the odds by being profitable + debt free since the beginning. Today she shares why she chose to scale with employees rather than independent contractors, the importance of mentorship, and how she maintains a strong team culture alongside rapid growth.<br/><br/>Connect With Alicia:</p><ol><li><a href='https://www.instagram.com/alicia.the.alchemist/'>@alicia.the.alchemist - Instagram </a></li><li><a href='http://www.honeycombcorvallis.com/'>www.honeycombcorvallis.com</a> </li><li><a href='http://www.beyond-the-chair.com/'>www.beyond-the-chair.com</a></li></ol><p>If you enjoyed today&apos;s episode, please:</p><ol><li>Post a screenshot &amp; key takeaway on your IG story and tag me <a href='https://www.instagram.com/missellenyin'>@missellenyin</a> &amp; <a href='http://www.instagram.com/cubicletoceo'>@cubicletoceo</a> so I can repost you.</li><li>Leave a positive review on Apple Podcasts</li><li>Subscribe for new episodes every Monday </li></ol><p><br/>----- </p><p>FREE RESOURCES:</p><p>Service-based entrepreneurs, are you tired of being on the content hamster wheel + hustling for more followers without more income?
