Funding Usage
I’m interested in getting my nail technician business up and running. I love making people feel beautiful and creating art. I am interested in booth renting at a Salon in Wolfeboro, NH (Salon94). There are items I need to purchase to start that I do not have the funds to purchase out of my own account. I’m finding it difficult to keep up with bills and try to supply all my equipment. I don’t want to take away from either, but I don’t want to struggle while I start. Becoming a business owner is my dream and I want to one day have my own Salon.

Business Plan
I plan to put my business cards anywhere I can, offer seasonal deals and promotions to draw clients in. I will be based out of a salon so it’s important for me to network and make connections with the other hairstylists and customers to get the word out there of my business. Since I was little it has been my dream to have a business of my own. I thoroughly enjoy my craft and learning everyday how I can become more skilled. In the summer I worked two jobs and payed my nail schooling in full, leaving me with not much to get started as a nail tech. I really would love to start and begin to be my own boss as well as grow a beautiful clientele that will grow into me one day owning my own salon. I’m interested in learning all I can and creating a space where I can educate others on their own personal nail health and hygiene. Nail health is very important to me as well as having a space where I can have full creative freedom. Being an artist it has always been my dream to turn my creativity into my career. To make money doing what I love. I am very passionate about what I do!

Self Identified Competition
In my area I would say my top three competitors are Aura Glow Beauty Bar, OK Lee Nails and Kathie Nails. I am an artist I love to create. There have been times where I have been to salons and they tell me I can’t get the design I’m looking for because they don’t know how to do it or it will take too long. I am interested in giving clients the space to choose what is best for them as well as educate them on their nails, helping them to grow beautiful healthy nails. I want people to look down and be proud of their nails
