Today the total Jam officially ended with our second group training today. It has been a wonderful total of 5 days for our Bonika Shears staff. We have learned so much from our sharpeners that it will take me awhile to digest it and share some of it here.
If you look on the right of this blog you will see the slideshow of photos from the Jam. If any of you want photos, just click on the slideshow and it should take you to Picasa where you can download photos or have them developed. I plan to make another photo book like last year's Jam. If anyone wants a copy, let me know and I will let you know the price.
On Monday, after Ron Ellis spoke, Gene took about 10 minutes to explain the way to create $60,000.00 per year in sharpening with 200 salons as sharpening clients. Several of the sharpeners attending asked for a copy of his figures. This is below. It will also be available on DVD and Audio CD as soon as I get them edited ... most likely September.
Here is the $60,000.00 Question.
Statistically the average salon in the US has 6.3 stylists. From observation the average stylist has 4 shears.
6 stylists with 4 shears each = 24 shears per salon
12 sharpening @ $25.00 each = $300.00
200 salons at $300.00 per year = $60,000.00
25 calls per week
5 calls per day
Sharpen 2400 shears @ $25.00 = $60,000.00
48 per week $1200.00 per week
9.6 per day $240.00 per day
Average retail sale $200.00
Profit $100.00
Each shear sold reduces the number of shears you need to sha
rpen by 4
