An aromatherapy business plan describes an interesting business model. Once shunned as a flimsy approach by the medical community, aromatherapy has exploded into a legitimate market patronized by young and old alike. While the client base of most aromatherapy businesses tends to be white, upper-class, and predominantly female, there are emerging market opportunities even in lower-class regions and in male-centric salons. No matter what sort of aromatherapy you practice, your business plan should make the following points clear to the reader:
• How do you use aromatherapy in your treatments?
• What is the cost of a session?
• How many times will a typical client visit you?
• Are all sessions conducted in your place of business?
• What are the start-up costs you anticipate?
The plan should also show precisely how you will spend the start-up monies you get, whether they come from loan or investment, and the timeline you expect to be able to meet in getting the business into a fully-functional state. Also look closely at the competitive players in your market and the state of the industry regionally. What is consumer spending on alternative medical care like, can you tell? And what is the market like (demographically speaking) within 10-15 miles? You should be able to show who your customers are or will be and what their spending potential is for your business.
