Great info .... a "must have" book

Fast Forward is a must read for anyone in the salon spa business and for that matter any business. This book addresses topics from A to Z on Quality management.

Wicked good!

For those in the beauty industry and for others looking to make the salon and spa field a career, there is no better guide than Neil Ducoff's book. In a business where most Salon and Spa education focuses on technical skills, sadly disappointing those in search of practical and relevant business information, you will be pleasantly surprised. Whether its leadership, finance, employee issues, marketing or system building, you will find the help that leads you thru all the avenues. Neil's experience, wisdom and bits of humor run throughout this book. Well written, readable and in a "reference format", you'll find yourself turning thru its pages often. Five years later it still holds a prominent space on my desk. Highly recommended!

Like a PDR for your salon!

Owning a copy of Fast Forward is like having a PDR (Physician's Desk Reference) for your salon. If you need any answer, it's in there. This is a great reference book for anyone in the salon or spa industry. It's just chock full of useful information. Just the other day I needed wording for a help wanted ad. I picked up my copy of Fast Forward and bingo - there it was. I highly recommend this book.
