What Are Non-Profit Partnerships?

Non-profit organizations are the heart and soul of our communities, tackling important social issues and making a real difference in people's lives. But they can't do it alone. That's where businesses, like SalonPLEX Suites, come in! Partnering with a non-profit is a fantastic way for SalonPLEX Suites and their members to connect with their community deeply and create positive change.

Benefits of Nonprofits Partnering With Salons

Here's a glimpse into what makes these partnerships so powerful:

Expanding Your Reach

Kristin Little, COO of SalonPLEX Suites, says perfectly: "SalonPLEX bridges the gap between organizations looking for additional resources and support and professionals looking to give back." 

By partnering with a non-profit, our salon members can tap into their network and spread the word about the cause. Imagine the impact if every stylist at your salon mentioned the partnership to their clients and how they can participate.

Building Buzz

By partnering with a salon, a non-profit organization can show its commitment to giving back to the community. This can help to improve the reach of  the organization and also attract more supporters to join their cause.

From Project Beauty Share, SalonPLEX: Beyond The Suite partner, Carla Stevenson, highlights this beautifully: "SalonPLEX Suites has been an outstanding partner. Passionately sharing our mission and movement on social media and with their SalonPLEX Suites members." 

This enthusiastic promotion isn't just good for SalonPLEX Suites, it provides larger engagement and creates a positive buzz for Project Beauty Share as well. Nonprofit organizations working with salons that have high traffic like SalonPLEX Suites, work strategically to get their message and mission to those in the community.

Creating a Community

By partnering with a salon, non-profits gain access to a dedicated network of passionate individuals – stylists and clients alike. 

Salons can leverage their established presence to promote the non-profit's cause, raising awareness and attracting potential donors or volunteers. 

This creates a win-win: salons fulfill their purpose in helping those in need, and non-profits gain valuable exposure and support for their mission.

Benefits of Partnering With Non-Profit Organizations

A beauty salon owner in collaboration with a charity organization compliments both organizations as the beauty salon owner also becomes the charity's warm welcome (spokesperson). Here are some of the critical benefits for the salon owner:

• Enhanced Community Engagement: A salon owner collaborating with a non-profit is more effective in instigating positive community change. These projects build community by helping us maintain the base of customers and the enviable positive local presence.
• Client and Salon Alignment: Working with a charity organization turns a salon into a compassionate workplace as it can attract clients who prefer their business based on giving back as their purchasing decision. 
• Expanded Networking Opportunities: Nonprofits interact with many individuals, businesses, or other organizations needing assistance. Your salon gains access to this vibrant community by partnering with a non-profit. It can result in new business opportunities, collaborations, or access to new resources. 
• Differentiate Your Salon from Competitors:  By showcasing your commitment to social good, you can stand out from other salons and attract clients who value making a difference just as much as you do.
• Being The Change: Collaborating with non-profit associations allows professionals to showcase the causes they’re passionate about. Talking about social change in your salon while also being intentional with your actions grabs the communities attention and, thus, your clients.
