FRANCHISE OFFERS AIRLINE STAFF NEW FLIGHT PATH

Australia’s leading professional hair care retailer is embarking on a new era of rapid expansion and has targeted former Qantas and Virgin employees in their five-year plan with a special deal.

Price Attack Salons’ Network Development Manager Delena Farmer is on the hunt for potential franchisees with the company setting a 2025 expansion and customer service strategy at lifting store numbers from 65 to 120.

“Our franchise owners come from all walks of life,” Ms Farmer said. “Price Attack is focused on customer service and delivering professional advice to our clients. Qantas and Virgin staff are highly skilled in this area and we see that there’s an opportunity for them to come on board and start a new career on the ground rather than in the air delivering amazing transformations for our loyal client base.”

In the wake of mass redundancies in the airline sector, Price Attack Salons is waiving 75 per cent of the franchise fee for former Virgin or Qantas employees.

Drawing on 30 years in the franchise sector, newly appointed CEO John Pascoe says anyone made redundant can have confidence in the franchise sector, as it continues to be resilient and, if managed and supported correctly, has a strong model for being successful.

“The franchisor focus is all about building partnerships for success,” he said. “It has also made franchisees seek out the good franchisors: those with the tried and tested operations. The hair care sector is worth $500 million a year and continues to grow 3 per cent year on year.”
