Did not want to work for anyone

by Katie Wilcox
(Spokane, WA.)

When I started school I knew I wouldn't want to work for a spa or salon for minimum wage. Sure it would be an easier way to build up a clientèle but with a little more work I can do that on my own. And that's what its all about. Being willing to work harder than I have ever worked before.

I know clients will love me and my work so why not dive right in? So long as I make sure i buy all of my supplies and have a thousand dollars in savings first. I plan on renting a few days from another independent massage practitioner, for about $200 a month, while working PT at my current job. As I build up a clientèle I can decide if I want to go full time to make myself more available.
I also took a marketing class and will use friends that work for large companies and the local paper to get my name out there!

Try contacting business and suggest chair massages. You may wish to book a two hour block around their lunch time and charge a flat rate. Make sure you provide a schedule of either 10-15 minute sessions.
