Jump-start your salon and spa business plans by attending a live Inspiring Champions training camp in 2011. Founded in 1995 by industry veteran Lauren Gartland, Inspiring Champions holds live training seminars across the country that specialize in the professional beauty industry. With a team of dedicated leaders, Inspiring Champions provides practical and proven solutions for the top business needs and challenges in the industry today. Says Gartland, “Our goal is to bridge the technical skills of technicians with business skills. Typically, cosmetology schools do not teach business training. We help salon and spa owners, hairstylists, nail techs, and other beauty professionals to learn the rules of business and prosper. You simply cannot win a game that you don’t know how to play.”

Inspiring Champions’ seminars include Champ Camp, Cash Flow Camp, Leadership Camp for Owners, and a webinar training, Top Gun Front Desk. Champ Camp is their signature workshop, teaching systems for running successful salons and promising all technicians the chance to increase their personal incomes to over $100,000. “This is a hands-on, step-by-step, paint-by-numbers business training course that will change your life and make you money for the rest of your career!” says Gartland. “We get amazing results in large numbers.”

Inspiring Champions also offers onsite training plus mentoring and coaching, which is done by telephone over a series of months.
