Karine Jackson, Owner of Karine Jackson Hair & Beauty and BHA London Hairdresser of the Year 2007

Ryan introduced me to the NEXUS systems as a way of further improving my business. He acts as my virtual Business Manager and helps to make us more organised and focused. In the first year we saw a 33% growth in our turnover. If you want to take your business to the next level you should call Ryan.

Kelly Spratling, Owner of Ash Hairdressing Salons UK

"Ash is a huge name in Japan with over 100 salons. We currently have 2 sites in the UK, Covent Garden & Bromley and are working with Umbrella to expand our UK operation. By using the NEXUS systems that Ryan helps us to implement, we have seen a growth of almost 50% in turnover in the first 18 months with the same number of staff" 

Paul Cochrane, Owner of Frankie Cochrane Hair & Beauty, Bloomsbury, London

"I have been working with Ryan at Umbrella for over 2 years now. He is my Business Guru...

 

Imagine having a Business Manager, Personal Development Coach and IT expert on tap whenever you need them. We'll that's what you get with Ryan's NEXUS Membership, at a fraction of the cost of employing people with these skills. I've been so impressed with the service that I've also taken on the Financial Performance Management Programme, which is a better service than I was getting from my previous accountant at a reduced cost."

Kalpana Gurang, Owner of the Himalayan Day Spa, Chiswick, London

"When I met Ryan from Umbrella the Himalayan Day Spa was just an idea in my head. He has helped me to turn my vision into a reality, and 2 years on I now have a successful business that I know is built on solid foundations. The combination of Ryan's expertise and the tried and tested NEXUS methods make for a powerful combination. Don't start a hair or beauty business without it!"

Hannah Salkeld, Owner of OneThreeSeven Salon, Cranleigh, Surrey

"When we opened our salon we choose a Nexus Membership as an alternative to taking on a franchise from a recognised name. NEXUS gives us the structure and guidance that we need but means we can remain independent and have complete control over our business and the brand. As we are a family business, Ryan is invaluable in helping us to remain objective and provides vital expert advice based on his many years of experience working in the industry."

Zara Elliot, Owner of Essence Health & Beauty, Sutton, Surrey

"My beauty salon was not moving forward and I was looking for some help with the business side of things. Umbrella was introduced to me by a friend and we took on a 12 Month NEXUS Membership. Ryan has helped us to restructure our pricing and the way we manage the team. It's early days, but I now have a clear path and expert advice whenever I need it. I have since recommended Ryan to other salons."
