Stock Chart
Overview
Salon City, Inc. is an emerging public company (OTCBB: SALN) in the media, publishing and lifestyle sector. Salon City is the first publicly traded media, marketing and distribution company in the history of professional salon industry worldwide. Salon City creates, brands and distributes information and content. It's current distribution channels are consumer, B2B and direct. It uses digital, online, mobile and print mediums to deliver unique Beauty Entertainment, publications, products and services. It markets and brands products through its award-winning web show, online, mobile and digital delivery system, salon network and new media. The company's largest future revenues may come from new products that have yet to be created or released.
Salon City is on the verge of cornering the new media market in the salon industry by capitalizing on revolutionary technology and media developments. Salon City offers media benefits that nurture an ever-growing market, and delivers an enormous amount of business management experience in developing both media and content for the salon industry.
Salon City magazine, where Life is Beautiful(SM), is distributed, retailed and sold nationally and internationally into select salons and on newsstands and bookstores. As an emerging media company for beauty entertainment and a lifestyle brand for future products and services, they want to appeal to a global audience of consumers who want to be empowered to lead a healthier, more positive lifestyle.
From their inception in 1997, known then as Salon City Press Club, they have published print and online media, most notably through their trade publication Salon City Star magazine. In March 2007, they re-positioned the six-year old professional trade publication ( Salon City Star ) to the new web site, and then launched the first edition of the 100% consumer-focused publication, Salon City . Through 2008, the company was still in the introductory stages of establishing the magazine’s presence in retail stores and in select salons.
To reach consumers, many of whom are the end-users for salons and spas, the company decided to sell the print version of Salon City magazine to parallel distribution channels consisting of the professional salon and retail newsstand market. The advantage of having both markets available to the company is that it allows them to maximize and safeguard the branding and exposure for Salon City’s name and products. To increase their international reach, they are distributing the magazine in selected newsstands and markets. Salon City magazine’s reach now extends to bookstores and newsstands throughout the USA and Canada, and in additional locations internationally, including, but not limited to, Australia, Dubai, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Singapore and the United Kingdom. The company’s aim in 2009 is to service the most profitable markets and achieve the greatest amount of exposure.
THE MANAGEMENT
Salon City's management, reputation and multi-media marketing skills are considered to be creative, unique and able to generate disruptive technology advancements in the market and industry.
THE MARKET POSITION
Salon City is the only company in this unique position to collectively market and brand the $100 Billion dollar professional salon industry. Its flexibility is a key strength in the emerging stage of its growth.
SCALABLE REVENUE MODEL
Revenues are based on branding partnerships, advertising, sponsorships, newsstand sales, salons and salon customers. Scalable revenues will be derived from sustained memberships, licensing fees and product sales associated with Salon City's network of independent salons and involved clients.
THE MARKET ADVANTAGE
Salon City is firmly entrenched in a continuously expanding, recession-strong market ( personal health and beauty professionals and salons can't have their jobs shipped overseas ) of 250,000 domestic beauty salons. Salon City is in a class of its own; the company owns it's own media, network, content and distribution. In short, a complete circle from beginning to end-user. Because Salon City has its own distribution, it can retail direct to consumers with its network and market though its media. Salon City will be aggregating and collectively marketing the influential 60% of independent salons with its media and distribution products.
THE SALON CITY NETWORK
Salon City owns its own professional salon distribution channel that can retail Salon City's brands of products and services Salon City is set to license a 'HOT 100' 'network of independent salons" that are marketed under the Salon City umbrella brand 'Salon City' and has the ability to attract millions of consumers to its network, generating valuable retail intelligence.
THE RAMP UP
Salon City has strong ties in the professional salon industry. The company aims to further reach, unite and collectively brand the 250,000 independent salons with Salon City's partnered products and services and media. Salon City's business model is about to move into a breakout phase status after nearly three years of foundation-building and by setting the stage as both an emerging and reporting public company.
