If you or. Anyone is interested, I have multiple copies of Michael Cole's books for salon professionals and the complete Salon Summit set of CD's and workbooks for sale for a fraction of the cost. The workbooks are pristine clean and the books are new. This is a great resource for anyone serious about creating or improving the business end of their salon. The Michael Cole books are very motivational and entertaining.
