Sometimes a salon requires new technology or modern equipment in order to drive the business forward, but is held back by lack of funds or cash flow, this is where the advantage of salon leasing will benefit any salon business.  But any salon thinking of going down the leasing route should also ensure they get the best prices and deals available on the equipment they wish to finance.

In this article, we share the secrets of where to look & how to negotiate your best furniture prices before signing any finance deal.

Here are our secrets (& advice):

1. Firstly what is commercial furniture leasing?
2. Do not mention salon furniture leasing at the start of any negotiation.
3. Do not buy from a wholesaler who only offers equipment from one manufacture.
4. Do not limit yourself to one individual lease.
5. Salon finance, bad credit.
6. What are the limits of salon leasing?
7. Furniture lease calculator.
8. Can I buy any salon equipment with leasing?
9. I'm thinking of custom-made salon furniture can I lease this?
10. Is salon leasing tax deductible?
11. Lease to own furniture: options
12. Look at working capital finance for purchasing stock & consumables. 
13. How long does it take to get my salon equipment?
14. Does every supplier offer salon leasing?
15. Other types of salon finance.

A great way for a business to own up-to-date & the latest technology salon furniture. By paying monthly a salon owner can budget his cash flow for the length of the lease.  You own the equipment at the end of the lease. The lease payments are a business expense and therefore are eligible for tax relief.

Spreading the cost of the furniture makes it easier to purchase the best products the first time. No need to compromise!  

Salon finance is not just available for luxury furniture leasing, we offer finance on all mixtures of salon equipment.

All too often we find as soon as salon owners mention to their equipment supplier "I'm getting my salon furniture on finance" the wholesaler immediately withdraws discounts, offers, and bulk deals.  The theory is, if your getting the benefit of cheap monthly payments then we as the supplier should also receive some financial reward.

First off, it is important to understand with any equipment lease deal the wholesaler is paid in full, upfront by your finance company - there's our benefit.

Any salon owner experiencing an equipment supplier withdrawing a discount or insisting on charging the full list price should walk away.

" Salon equipment leasing is a great facility for a business to obtain the latest higher quality furniture and renew their existing equipment with the latest technology, we actively encourage salons to examine this opportunity," says Mike Cooper the MD of Inspiring Salons Ltd.  "any salon coming to Inspiring Salons Ltd for salon finance, we first calculate their cheapest possible equipment purchase price, then work out the finance options: all sales are treated with the same "

Too many wholesalers offering salon equipment leasing only have trading relationships with a single furniture manufacture, which means when you are looking to spend your leasing cheque you have a very limited option to choose from.  Some equipment wholesalers also only deal with one category, just hairdressing for example: again limiting your options.

Look at spending your finance with a company that not only gives you a great deal but also has a wide selection of salon equipment. 

Inspiring Salons has access to a multitude of salons & beauty equipment ranges from high-end designer Italian lines to more basic and cost-effective products. 

"If you can not find the equipment you are looking for then come to our salon equipment center and we will design what you are looking for," says salon design guru Mike Cooper of Inspiring salons Ltd

It is not unusual for a salon to upgrade their salon equipment piece by piece, in doing so they take out multi leasing agreements.  This is a great way for a growing salon to be paying for its self. 

Remember when taking out salon equipment you take delivery of the furniture straight away and you have agreed set monthly repayments.

For example, if a beauty salon business is growing and they decide it is time to offer a new service or open up another beauty room, then look at starting a brand new look at new beauty salon financing, to run alongside any existing salon equipment finance the salon may have already taken out.

This is repeated salon leasing is very common among our customers at Inspiring salons, and some salons also mix their leases over different time periods, some at 24 months some at 60 months:  Just discuss with us!

Not a problem, contact us & we will look into your options and availability: all 100% confidential.

 The lease payments are a business expense and therefore are eligible for tax relief. 

Currently on a salon furniture lease of £10,000 if your business qualifies for tax relief this is an approximate repayment term:

24 months: Monthly Payments of £493 - Total Cost = £11,832 Minus £2,479 Tax Relief (@ 21%) Net cost of £10,000 finance is £9,329!

36 months: Monthly Payments of £356 - Total Cost = £12,798 Minus £2,687 Tax Relief (@ 21%) Net cost of £10,000 finance is £10,110!

 48 months: Monthly Payments of £275 - Total Cost = £13,200 Minus £2,772 Tax Relief (@ 21%) Net cost of £10,000 finance is £10,428! 

 60 months: Monthly Payments of £233 - Total Cost = £13,950 Minus £2,929 Tax Relief (@ 21%) Net cost of £10,000 finance is £11,021! 

You can see from our illustration here one of the key benefits with furniture finance, a £10,000 lease over 5 years with tax relief: your net total payment is only £11,021 - £1,021 over 60 months!

Again these are only figures available currently, and we suggest you contact us to discuss your options and you should clarify with your accountant your tax situation.

An Inspiring Salons furniture leasing agreement is available with a multitude of options, from 12 months up to 60 months.  we can offer longer-term options but in reality, after 60 months most salons would be looking to refurbish their salon & acquire the next range of furniture & new modern salon technology.

Rember: You own the equipment at the end of the lease.

Not every salon equipment wholesaler offers furniture leasing, because the paperwork & extra service required is off-putting.  We believe if a supplier can not offer this customer service then are they lacking customer service in other areas?

But when looking at suppliers who offer finance it is important to check do they also have access to a wide & multitude range of furniture manufactures?

Salon Furniture Leasing: Secrets on getting the best deals - as discussed the best deals are not necessarily the cheapest interest rate, but with UK competition they are all the same nowadays, but the best deal is in the actual salon furniture you actually lease & from which supplier.

Look at what you are going to lease, the colour options, different styles, various price ranges, and custom-made options, sp[end more time on these aspects than your actual finance deal.

Do not completely negate the finance deal, we suggest to all our finance clients they check the rate & terms over with their business accountant or bank manager, ask if this can be beaten. 

It is agreed that whatever salon furniture leasing options are taken up, salon equipment leasing is a great advantage for any salon to gain instant access to new higher range salon furniture & the latest technology salon equipment that is available on the market.
