In this days,the market is very demanding,many companies want you, to have a license as massage therapist , as a condition, to be hire, gradually, is something it's been implementing, more and more and this days.
Because the Spa Director is the top salary in the Spa,they demand even more you are the leader,and corporate is expecting more from you, example: if for some reason one of therapy's doesn't show that day ,you as an Spa director , will take place, until you get another replacement.
Your knowledge must be extensive, in all areas in the Spa, you need to be creative and compose a new Spa menus, when is needed, promote de Spa, in high seasons or low seasons,always,searching for new markets,knowledge in mathematic calculations,debit and credit, ratio between spa services and retail.
How would you handle the annual budget, and how would you look for most profitable ways, to become successful and make lots of profit?.
If you need to do something to promote, and you have the knowledge, do it your self, you don't have to hire a marketing company to do it, you have the experience,making reviews periodically of the software tutorials will help you considerable.
When the time comes to hire the staff, is very profitable, to look for therapy's who are duals two in one, that action will save you a lots of money in your budget:example.
The best Spa director is the one, who is a living example of well bean , the one who apply the philosophy every day as a routine, need to look neat,well groom, exercise,dress well, interactive with the staff,be approachable, very social with the guest, and helpful when is need it.
The Spa Director is like the conductor at the Symphony,from the podium you direct every single one.
