“Passive ownership is what Sharkey’s is all about”, says CEO Scott Sharkey. They have been able to combine a passive ownership franchise with a model that is 100% recession-proof for today and years to come. Sharkey’s Cuts for Kids is not one of those trendy franchises where maybe you make back your ROI within 3-5 years before your concept gets replaced by something bigger, better, or more trendy. Their franchise offers people the opportunity to invest in a brand that has longevity, is fun to run, and is recession-proof with very little competition.  Kids always need haircuts and you cannot get that on Amazon.

Their goal is to give people a passive ownership opportunity at a very nominal cost. Its longevity is an investment, giving owners the option to pass their business down to future generations.

• Looking for passive owners who would like to stay in their current job and open multiple locations.
• No hair experience necessary
• Interested in running the business from a remote location or from home
• Fairly good social media skills, but not required, as this can be outsourced

Sharkey’s really sets itself apart from the competitors with their well planned design and unequaled entertainment factor. They don’t just cater to the youngest of children or one gender – they have positioned themselves in the market for kids of all ages (0-14 = longer retention rate), and adults as well! Once children come to the salon they want to come again and again for the overall experience. They have extremely high brand loyalty among their young customers and their parents.

The best designed kid’s salon franchise for attracting kids above the ages of 6. If your salon is too “baby-ish” or “cartoony” it will not attract the older kids. You cannot sustain a profitable business in this industry if you only focus on and attract kids between the ages of 0-6. Sharkey’s is the best at attracting all age kids because their salon is designed to appeal to little ones and older kids as well. They have something for everyone and that makes them a one-stop shop for busy parents. Sharkey’s is the ONLY kids salon designed with the older kids (ages 10-14) in mind. Sharkey’s offers the longest retention rate of customers in its industry because they cut hair for kids 0-14. Why would you invest in a children’s hair salon franchise that only attracts a small segment of the market when you can invest in Sharkey’s and ensure a larger base from which to pull your business?
