Create beauty studio | Application Preview

 

Create Beauty Studio is submitting a grant application to alleviate its debts and facilitate business expansion. As one of only a few makeup providers in the area, the owner aims to build a sustainable business model after relocating five years ago to support a military member.

The funding will support the distribution of a lash extension glue currently sold online and will enable the business owner to hire and train additional staff. As a community-oriented guest instructor in local schools, the owner intends to share her makeup expertise with aspiring beauty professionals.

The owner emphasizes her established reputation for trustworthy beauty services and her supportive relationships with both clients and fellow business owners, despite the competition from other local salons. She aims to maintain her business values, focusing on customer satisfaction, but has faced challenges finding reliable help, leaving her to manage alone.

Despite her competition, she highlights her commitment to community and customer support, noting the struggles of being solo in her entrepreneurial journey. With experience and formal training from various states, she hopes to contribute positively to the local beauty industry and is seeking funding to ensure the longevity and growth of Create Beauty Studio.
