These professionals operate their suite as an independent business enabling them to set their own schedules, establish their menu of services, sell retail product, personalize the space to suit their own taste, and keep all profits. Each professional is required to carry appropriate licenses for their services and business as well as professional and general liability insurance. Each professional is bound by an annual lease granting them non exclusive use of the suite space for their buisness. Lease charges are done automatically each week. A Suite Salon operates company stores in Illinois, North Carolina, and Florida.
