What We Do

At Danny Lapointe Consulting Inc., we serve as a management consultant to entrepreneurs and corporations engaged in the salon industry. Their reasons for coming to us are diverse, but there are also fundamental similarities. Salons across Canada are suffering from inherited systems that induce failure. They are plagued in the old model of doing business that does not work in today’s market place.
Many of these salons have reached a certain level of professionalism, success, and prestige in their communities. Many have also reached a point of frustration about their financial structure, their profits, and culture.

A New Model

At Danny Lapointe Consulting Inc., we practice customer-driven business model. We’ve created a more productive approach to building financial, operations, and management structures of salons.
The SEVEN KEYS to success are our core beliefs; the critical points of distinction where Danny Lapointe Consulting Inc.’s models differ substantially from conventional industry standards. The seven keys are a successful business-minded system that maximizes growth and promotes excellence.
