RELEVANT CURRICULUM
Prosper U makes learning the business end of the salon industry fun and exciting.
“Having purchased a cosmetology school I set out to visit with local salon owners/managers to find out just what they were looking for in a newly graduated student and future employee. I would say that 95% of them made the comment that they wanted to see the graduates more prepared for the business portion of the industry. They wanted to see these graduates understand the importance of goal setting, retailing, rebooking and referrals. These owners/managers are so busy with the day to day operations of the salon they don’t have the time to train new employees on how to retail, rebook and use social media to get the referrals to build their clientele and business quickly and efficiently. Prosper U provides a fun and interesting way to do all these things without the students feeling like they are “SELLING” something. The exciting part to all of this is the excitement my staff has going into teaching the system. They are excited because they have seen what the students gain from learning the important skills taught through Prosper U. Staff members actually fight over who gets to teach Prosper U to the students. The staff members see how much of an advantage the students who have trained with Prosper U have compared to other students who have not had the same type of training. The educators are eager to share those benefits to the students to help them become more successful. Prosper U makes learning the business end of the salon industry fun and exciting. Students can actually see the progress they make each week, month all the way through to graduation and beyond. When students can see results they are more likely to be engaged. Thank you to the whole Prosper U team for developing such an awesome system.”
EASY TO UNDERSTAND

“I absolutely love the Prosper U program! I have found that it provides a positive and motivating experience to the students. It makes the business side of the beauty and wellness industry easier to understand, which can be understandably overwhelming. Being able to work the numbers for success. The importance of the consultation and how to talk to your guests to get accurate information to be able to perform the best service possible. I find that my students are better able to understand what it takes to obtain new clients and keep them coming back. Their rebooking numbers and retail sales steadily increase because they use the program to the best of their abilities. Prosper U has become one of my favorite classes to teach because I can see the process work in real time. Being able to share my passion for the industry combined with the passion of the Prosper U team, instils a growing passion for the industry in my students. I am excited to see all of the new things this program continues to offer!”

INDUSTRY READY
One thing that always caused hesitation is my lack of confidence when it comes to the business side of the industry — how to set my prices, how to create a plan for financial success, how to network, how to ensure clients will return to me, etc. Being a truly successful stylist is about more than just doing good hair, so the Prosper U program is such an important tool.

Prosper U not only gives actual percentages and solid numbers of where a stylist will see the most income, but it also offers such wonderful encouragement throughout the program.
“As the salon manager of Duncan Brothers Salon Quail Springs, I have the opportunity to work with brand new hair stylists. My goal is to help them grow an amazing clientele, grow their product sales, learn salon professionalism, build layering relationships, and have fun doing it. The stylists who have come from our school, the Academy of Hair Design, already have such an understanding of what to do. They know how to give a proper consultation, recommend the products clients need, and what to expect in the salon because of the Prosper U business training program. Prosper U not only gives actual percentages and solid numbers of where a stylist will see the most income, but it also offers such wonderful encouragement throughout the program.

FUNDAMENTALS FOR SUCCESS
Prosper U has developed methods that are proven effective and useful to our students.
“When a person decides they are interested in the beauty industry the first thing that is thought of is coloring and cutting hair. This is a fun and artistic way of expression. However, an individual entertaining the idea of this industry overlooks a very important component. The business side. Introducing the Prosper U program to students will arm them with the fundamental tools needed it understand and become successful in this industry. A few of the tools taught are: -increase average service with clients -expand client base -prebook and follow up with existing clients -ability to recommend appropriate products for client’s needs -retain current clients Prosper U has developed methods that are proven effective and useful to our students.
