Caitlyn Menzel Coaching (CMC) was a finalist in the Home Based and Micro Business category at the 2019 Deakin University Geelong Business Excellence Awards.
CMC is the brainchild of successful hair salon owner and entrepreneur Caitlyn Menzel.
CMC began its humble beginnings in the back of Caitlyn’s hair salon, Huntress.
In January 2017 CMC launched with four clients. By March, Caitlyn stepped out of her salon completely to focus on coaching.
“Fast forward to 2019, three relocations later, we found our forever home in Belmont”, CMC’s entry says.
Caitlyn’s coaching naturally progressed from helping out friends and presenting at events until she quickly realised she could turn her knowledge and expertise of the hair and beauty industry into a business.
“Every owner, team and salon are different, so at CMC we’ve worked to create education, mentorship, coaching programs and short courses to suit the needs and desires of all,” CMC’s entry says.
“Everything we do is delivered digitally, making it accessible anywhere, anytime.
CMC’s mentoring programs have been created for determined salon owners who are ready to level-up and take their salon to the summit.
“Our programs empower young businesswomen to grow their salons into a seamlessly profiting business, allowing them to build and lead their teams, understand every aspect of their business from the inside out; all of which will enable them to grow into the future,” the entry says.
“The goal: break the hairdresser stereotype of being a ‘dumb job’ and empower struggling salon owners to build their empire.”
