The Right Approach and Model

It takes the right approach and a working model to take a wellness business forward. Every business has a different approach and work differently. A yoga classes business and a salon business will never have the same approach and working model. The target market is also an important aspect in deciding the right way to work and take the business forward.

We are opening salons in big cities and trying to take the same model to small cities. This is a wrong approach. We have to customise services, quote the prices and understand what they want after which we should enter the metro cities, says Mr Nitin Kalwani, Managing Director, Juice Salon, India.

Conclusion

Wellness as a business prospect has a big scope. New, as well as already existing names, have a large area to explore and expand their business in. The wellness industry is growing rapidly as are the opportunities that come with it.
