Sway is motivational BUT...

Sway is motivational and the people that she presented to us were good; so good in fact that you don't see the upsell coming your way. For folks that are trying to change their lives for the betterment of themselves and their families, paying ($12K+) to NOT get the hands-on care that is needed at that price point is somewhat disappointing. It was stated that she had planned to "slow down" and cut back on the coaching but was making an exception for this group especially to continue the "masterclass" coaching........ DON'T FALL FOR IT! Just saw another advertisement for more masterclasses coming. At this rate, the salon biz is not her primary breadwinner, however folks paying this kind of money is-- and not getting the type of "consulting" that one would have expected at this price is again disappointing. However, her partnering with the credit consultant, Ali, as well as a financial consultant, and commercial realtor for Q&As are the best part of the masterclasses.

Steps to Salon Suite Ownership & Success

I have been seeking God on how to start my own business. Joining the live event this evening, with "Sway The Pro" is the start of my prayers being finally answered! 🙌🏽 I want to give back to my community and create real, consistent, generational wealth and success for my family. I am a Veteran(Army), Wife of a Veteran(Army), Mom & "G-Ma" 🥰 Former Corporate Professional and Salon Apprentice. I've enjoyed giving my time to family and our country, but it's MY time now, and THIS event was the kickstart I needed!💪🏽 We were given a plethora of knowledge and information that I've never experienced before in the Hair & Beauty Industry regarding salon ownership, business tactics, etc... I'm thrilled that in this avenue, you don't have to stress about clients/being "behind the chair" to make money. I am now motivated and inspired that my dream CAN and WILL BE MY REALITY!🙌🏽

Mindset Shift

This is my second time joining the free Sway Six Figure Salon seminar, and I truly believe in the business model. The information is insightful and really shift my mindset from just being a cosmetologist to building a structured, profitable business.

It’s great for anyone, but especially for beauty professionals coming from behind the chair who are ready to grow into ownership.

A helpful addition would be more guidance on marketing strategies that drive tenant conversion, along with insight into operational upkeep, including janitorial and maintenance support. It would also be valuable to include a clear comparison between investing in a franchise vs building your own salon suite model.

The webinar is unmatched, it’s a valuable experience for anyone serious about growing wealth in the beauty industry.

Time well spent

Sway did an amazing job providing a foundational overview on the why and how of investing in salon suites. I thoroughly enjoyed learning from an industry expert who can provide perspective not only as a current salon suite owner, but a former beauty professional as well. Her presentation was clear, concise, and easy to follow as she spoke from a place of passion and transparency. As someone who's been genuinely curious about this for quite some time, I'm very glad I signed up for this webinar and look forward to learning more.

Sway has Per”swayed” Me to GET IN THE ROOM!

The Salon Suite Model provided a broad, yet specific overview of how to win, not only in this industry, but in life. Sway is exceptionally motivating and honest at the same time. 4 words Sway, “invaluable use of time.” I’m confident that the 5 day challenge will empower me to be competent for success. I trust that the coaching and resources afforded will require me to be coachable, resourceful, and diligently soak up the knowledge. The presentation left a thirst and sparked an appetite for getting in the room, and changing my mindset from worker to producer, If I had to give 1 push in all the praise I can share, I’d say shorten the initial presentation to an hour, It was generous to provide so much research, data, visuals, and testimonies; however, you had me 30 minutes in. Timing is everything, and minds don’t change or commit fully, without readiness. Excellent call. I’m excited and appreciative about what’s to come, even if it’s 1 more sacrifice I have to figure out financing! It is my time to elevate…

loved this video

loved this video! I have worked as a Massage therapist for 20 years now had my own business as a solo therapist for 13! I need and want more! I have actually worked in a couple salon suites! I love how you compared the difference between this venture or real state! I'm sitting here with a real estate course but you have made me have a change of heart and can absolutely see the benefit and how this business is so lucrative! I'm so ready but because of circumstances I can't even pay for the 5 day course right now! I'm so ready to dive in though if I could! I think or know its something that will do amazing here in Las Vegas as well as other places! I'd absolutely love the chance to learn and become successful in this business! So ready! Tired of fighting for clients and want to fight for semi passive income that will allow service providers space and willing to work to get there! Please help out if you can! If anything is there a way to get in your community of likeminded people? I'd still love to learn, ask question and get as much info and feed back as possilbe!

The energy from Sway is infectious!

The energy from Sway is infectious. I have owned a salon and a bakery in the past. They both lasted 5 years and I used my own money to fund them. I had the title of the owner but was barely making ends meet. This time I am ready to learn the right way to do things and make a difference for my family. I feel that this course is my safety net and is there to keep me on track. I am so excited to learn about this opportunity because I am tired of living check to check. I have to be the one to invest in myself and make a life instead of just making a living. Sway has taken the losses so I won't have to. I can proudly say that Sway is my mentor and I am learning from the #1 Salon Suites Mentor.

Salon Suite live online event

I recently attended a live online event about building and running a salon suite, and it was absolutely worth it!

She was incredibly informational, breaking everything down in a way that was easy to understand and apply. You can tell she truly knows her craft and has real experience in the industry. Beyond that, she showed up as a genuine mentor—transparent, motivating, and willing to pour into others.

She dropped so many valuable gems and nuggets from business setup to mindset and growth strategies, every part of the session added value.

If you’re thinking about starting or leveling up your salon suite business, I highly recommend tapping in. Definitely a game-changer!

The information provided was very useful, especially for someone like me who has NO experience in commercial leasing, man this can save you from a lot of error and mistakes. She doesn't only show possible profit but also realistic expenses and real numbers! Everyone shows the goodside and the figures but she shows the real so that potential owners are prepared for this. Lastly, shes very upfront and direct. If you don't have the mindset, if you don't truly want change, if you don't believe this can work, this wont work. Very grateful for this seminar!!

Salon Suite Blueprint 101

This class was very informational. Sway is very knowledgeable in her field. I appreciate the opportunity to be able to be in the room. I currently have a medical scrubs business and this has encouraged me to go a little harder. Passive income is the best.

The Invaluable Intro to Salon Suite Ownership

This webinar was invaluable! An hour of time for information and inspiration costed me nothing, yet increased confidence into a brighter future. Breaking down each item was helpful because people tell you to go do, or “You should” without showing you HOW. This is the How I needed.

I’m excited to learn more and invest in myself to support others who are looking to build their dreams. I will do so by owning a salon suite to fuel their passion while making money in my sleep! No longer will the Enemy be MY INNER ME

Thank you Sway and team!

The 6 Figure Salon Suite Business…

The 6 Figure Salon Suite Business informational course was truly meaningful, real, and informative. It provided clear, practical insights into the salon suite business model, making it easy to understand both the opportunities and responsibilities that come with it. The content felt authentic and transparent, giving a realistic view rather than just highlighting the positives.

What stood out most was how informative the course. It broke down important details like ownership expectations, financial considerations, and day-to-day operations in a way that was easy to follow. Whether you’re knowh beaut industry or looking to transition into a more independent space, this course offers valuable knowledge that helps you make confident, informed decisions.

Overall, it was a worthwhile experience that delivered both clarity and inspiration. Sway’s personality is beautiful and sincere, that was the bonus for me!

Salon suite model

I had the opportunity to learn the introduction to the process of opening a salon suite. Sway broke down everything in a way that was super easy to understand, from business setup to daily operations. I walked away super excited and confident in my investment into my business future. With her willingness to answer questions and share her knowledge I am confident I will be able to get my own suites up and running successfully.
