What does a business plan for a salon cost?
Effective and last updated: September 3, 2026
$720 for a lender-format salon plan with three-year projections.
The whole question in a salon plan is whether the chairs are employed or rented, because that one decision changes the revenue model, the payroll and the risk the lender is being asked to take.
What goes in a salon plan
- Chair rental against commission modelled explicitly, with the one you have chosen and why.
- Service revenue and retail product revenue kept separate, since the margins are nothing alike.
- Client retention and rebooking rate, which is the number that decides whether year two works.
- Fit-out, equipment and the licensing your state requires, in the opening costs rather than as a footnote.
What the price includes
- Full written plan: summary, market, operations, marketing, and risks
- Three-year financial projections as a spreadsheet you can edit
- Formatted for lender and grant submissions
- Two revision rounds included
Turnaround: 10-14 business days
