Gall, Joyce P.
This module on owning and operating a hair styling shop is one of 36 in a series on entrepreneurship. The introduction tells the student what topics will be covered and suggests other modules to read in related occupations. Each unit includes student goals, a case study, and a discussion of the unit subject matter. Learning activities are divided into individual activities, discussion questions, and a group activity. Units (and subject matter) in this module are planning your business (services and hair care products; importance of personal qualities; competing successfully); choosing a location (what to consider); getting money to start (choosing a money source; statement of financial need; business description); being in charge (listing tasks; dividing the work; contracting for services; hiring strategy; training employees); organizing the work (work schedule; record of special services); setting prices (cost of supplies; operating expenses; profit; demand; competition); advertising and selling (how to spread the word; why advertise every month; how to sell); keeping financial records (the sales slip; daily cash sheet); and keeping your business successful (profit/loss statement; profit and expense ratios; keeping profits high; to grow or not to grow). A summary and quiz complete the document. (A teacher's guide is available for this module.) (CT)
