Sheri, of course this will be boring, cause all of you know I am all about the laws/rules/government bull crap. Everyone in our industry are creative people. We don't wanna deal with the "facts of life", but maybe if these "facts" were taught, maybe more would stay in the industry and stay successful.

Taxes. No one is taught this. It is a part of our business. Still, many don't even know how to read their a pay check stub. They have no idea what is taken out, what is mandatory with a paycheck stub, how will they know when they become an owner of their own business (boothrenter/independant contractor), how in the hell can they pay their own if they don't understand their bottom line.

Social Security/medicare. They see it taken out of their paychecks, but do they realize that the employer also pays the exact amount and sends it off to the government in their name, and this is what they will get back when they retire. So the big bad owner according to these employees are rich and "taking" their money, when in fact, the owner is putting money aside for them. But also, the boothrenter/IC, doesn't wanna pay their taxes, so they "hide" their money and don't report it. SURPRISE, when they retire, they find out oops, I don't get a check every month, I thought I automatically get one. NOPE, all those years you didn't pay, you don't get crap.

Credit Card/Banking. You don't realize how many new girls have no idea how to use one for their business. And then if they do accept credit/debit cards, then don't report these on their taxes, and then are surprised how did the government find out about that anyway.(Credit cards report this to them)

Boothrent contracts. Have no idea what is good or not. How Owners take advantage of the new girls. How boothrenters think that they should get maternity leave, sick leave etc. No basic concept on the Owners part OR the boothrenters part. No basic understanding of the IRS and Labor Laws.

State Laws, They have no concept of the State Boards. The Senate and House make the laws, not the boards.

I am sure Karen can add more to this, just basic understanding of business. An ABC course. Boring and many won't think it is important, until its time to deal with the Real World. JMHO and I will stop blah blah blah Now................LOLO diana from indiana

I'm kicking around an idea Ana would like some input please.

What, if any, non-product, non-technique related classes would you be interested in taking or attending at a trade show? Marketing? Motivational? Salon management/hiring/training/writing & developing salon protocols abd policies & procedures? Self-improvement? Or any other topics you think might be worthwhile.

Thank you in advance for your help!
