A job well done deserves a reward. We recognise passion and hard work in a variety of ways, including:

• National incentive programs for Beauty Therapists, Salon Teams and Salon Owners
• Our Annual 'Ella Awards', an opportunity for therapists and salon owners to shine amongst their peers. This glamorous event recognises the performance of top salons, and elects individuals in each state for outstanding performance and commitment.

The family oriented nature of our company inspires Salon Owners across the network to share business and management intelligence, performance tips, best practice protocols and margin strategies to achieve greater returns.

The benefits of our collaborative approach to franchise networking are many. One of the biggest benefits is that you can benchmark your business performance against your peers in a transparent and collaborative environment. You have the opportunity to share your challenges with fellow Salon Owners to learn how they've coped in similar circumstances and share your solutions to help your peers grow.

These strategic alliances are offered formally (in group sessions) or one-on-one, if requested.
