Hi Wumingju,
I have a Mani /Pediure setup are you interested.
To my view Mani /Pediure business is the same like others business.
In business you must have Passion , Vission , Creation and must take Action .
Should have a Sharing , Caring and Helping Heart.
Last ofcouse Commitment and a Never Say Die Mindset.
If you are interested to commit in Mani/Pedicure business you can ride on.
Regards
John

how would u market your pedicure biz, promotions.
in my opinion, the cost friendly would be leaflets & promo's. like those beauty centres. like 1st timers 50% off. when u get customers coming would be customer service to keep them coming back.

Hi,
In what veiw do you mean by praised customers, there are many ways.
I start my first mani/ pedi in a HDB shop estate, you know in HDB everyone will think auntie and local market. I start to give 30% off to all customers for 3 month. Responds are good , busy but can't cover pay.
After 3 month back to the normal prices not so busy but earn little more.
I give good service, friendly and good skill to praise my customers and they treat me the same my customers are from all estate now and by now is the thirth year of my business i don't say i earn big money, but i can still run on easily.
Regards

hi chix, where r u taking courses for mani/pedi?

I just finished learning basic mani/pedi @ $300 only for 5 days. I also get the basic products I need plus I get certificate when i finish. I have checked out other places & this is the cheapest I found. Its also 1 to 1 teaching. The trainer is also kind and friendly. My sis went to another place to learn and more expensive and so many girls in a class. If you are interested, let me know. I can give details.

porsche2121,
You need 5 posts before your PM becomes activated (send function). This is to try to prevent spammers so post some more?

[quote="chixchix"]Hey Porsche where did you learn the course ??
I took the course at NiNi's Nail Studio. Add: 60B Boat Quay. Can try...now my friend is taking it and she just finished 3 days ago...now she is looking for a job as part-time manicurist to gain experience. Not a bad way to invest your time and money, dont you think?
