Empowering You Takes the Twin Cities

May 9, 2019

We had our first SOLD OUT Empowering You event ever thanks to Minnesota. It was great to see suite owners from all 6 locations in the area come out to learn more about social media marketing and retail best practices. From a hands-on interactive morning with Taylor from Matrix to a very informative afternoon with Bio Ionic in the afternoon, there was something for everyone. Not to mention all of the fantastic products raffled off at the end.

New Locations coming to Minnesota

To add to the excitement, Minnesota also has 2 new locations in the works. While in town for the Empowering You event, Jo-Lynn got to see the plans for the swanky Uptown model with owner April Simek, as well as the modern sister store to Burnsville in Apple Valley with owner Diana Kokku. Both are already signing leases and building momentum for their summer openings with the help of their concierges, Miriah and Melissa. We are thrilled to see that both locations are off to a great start!

Jo-Lynn was also able to visit the Burnsville, Southdale Square and Waite Park locations. “It’s always so fun to meet the different suite owners and see how they decorate their suites in the various locations across the country. It brings me joy to see them able to fully express themselves and their brand. They are always so proud of what they’ve created and accomplished.”

ABOUT Salons by JC

In 1997, Jack Griffey and Cecil Miller began their journey to transform the beauty industry one salon suite at a time. Like most young entrepreneurs, they started out with a big idea but had to learn how to start and run a business from scratch. After much perseverance and hard work, one year later, they opened Salons by JC in Dallas, Texas in 1998, welcoming beauty and wellness specialists who were ready to break free from the traditional salon model. The company has since moved its headquarters from Dallas to San Antonio, where it continues to grow through franchising. Today, Salons by JC has nearly 100 locations in 26 states and Canada and are looking to develop of 200 over the next several years.
