How much does a foot therapist earn?

For many people who don’t understand the pedicure industry, when it comes to pedicureists, the most direct feeling is: high income!

How much does a foot therapist earn? Some people say that the monthly salary is several thousand, while others say that the monthly salary is 10,000 to 20,000. As soon as some ignorant people saw this number, they began to wonder: To make so much money, it must be...

How much can a podiatrist earn every day? Let's take a look together today.

Cleaning stores

Except for some stores equipped with full-time cleaning staff, technicians are responsible for the sanitation of many stores. Cleaning is the first thing you do when you go to work. Before you wake up, you have to run back and forth in the private room with a pile of sheets and sofa covers, and you may be fined if you don't do good hygiene. ?

According to the general store configuration, the ratio of pedicure sofas to technicians is 2:1, which means that each technician must clean at least two sofas and one private room. I usually get off work late and don't have enough rest time. Before I have a good rest in the morning, I have to work first, which makes me tired just thinking about it.

Hold a regular meeting

Maybe a friend wants to laugh, so just hold a regular meeting. Which company hasn’t held a meeting yet? Then I hope you can patiently watch the video below before commenting.

Because the profession of pedicure has a certain sales component and the work intensity is very high, it is inevitable that you need to get blood injections. Although the above video is slightly exaggerated, it also describes the reality. What's even worse is that in some stores, such regular meetings are held three times a day!

Don’t ask whether you can make money by holding regular meetings. Many technician friends said: If you can not hold regular meetings, you can make less money.

Practice techniques

Many friends have been to pedicure shops. After being massaged by the technician, do you feel refreshed? Many people think that technicians' techniques can only be learned in a few days when they first enter the industry. But what many people don’t know is that massage is a craft that only improves if you use it, and wastes if you don’t use it. In order to ensure that we can give guests the best experience, as long as the clock is not clocked, most of the time must be spent practicing techniques.

If you go to the store one day and see a foot therapist massaging your colleagues, don’t think they are just bored and having fun, they are doing it to give you a better experience. Prepare.

Maybe you want to ask: This is to make customers like the store and improve the reputation of the store. Should there be a salary, right?

Sorry, not a dime.

Techniques and service assessment

Why are technicians so tired after working the clock, but they still have to practice their techniques after working the clock? Because there is an assessment.

In order to ensure service quality, many pedicure shops organize assessments every now and then. In order not to hold back their colleagues, many pedicurists jokingly said: I didn’t like studying when I was studying. I didn’t expect to become a pedicurist. You have to learn more than a student...

Oh, this job is lucrative, but you have to be in some shop with a grand boss, and you have to rank high in the assessment.

Selling card tickets

Friends who have been to the store must have experienced being pushed by technicians to apply for cards. That is because many stores have set performance tasks for technicians.

Although customers will receive dozens of dollars in commission when applying for a card, if they fail to complete the task, not only will they not get the final commission, they may also be deducted!

There is money to be made in this job, but it is difficult to make money.

Going to the Bell

This job is almost the entire impression that the outside world has of foot therapists. If it is just a pedicure, you need to carry foot washing water, chat with the customer, use the right technique, and massage for thirty or forty minutes.

The thirty to forty-minute massage includes: budding, goldfish wagging their tails, partitions with ears, cranes spreading their wings, long flowing water, dragonflies touching water, burning camp, immortals guiding the way, heavier than Mount Tai, overwhelming, and you’re done. ...

With such a complicated process and so many acupuncture points, how can we do it well without the hard training above? Massage requires the foot therapist to use finger joints and press hard. Many foot therapists have deformed their fingers due to long-term work!

This is just a simple foot massage. If the customer is in a good mood, he can also add a head massage, shoulder and neck massage, waist and back massage... Even if the room has air conditioning, the foot therapist will be covered in sweat when he leaves the clock. !

This job is lucrative. Just like the piece-rate wages on the assembly line, the pedicure therapists get a commission based on the amount of money spent by the customers at the end of the day.

According to the industry average, the commission is generally between 35% and 40%. We calculate it as 120 yuan per hour. The pedicureists can earn about 45 yuan per hour.

If calculated based on 90 minutes per clock from preparation to the end of the service, the podiatrist works from 12 noon to 12 pm every day, which is 12 hours, even if he does not eat or do anything every day, If you rest and keep clocking, you can only work for 7 or 8 hours at most. If there are no complaints from customers, you will only earn 300 yuan.

Those friends who say that podiatrists make a lot of money. If you were given 300 yuan a day, but required to work continuously for 12 hours a day at high intensity, not to stop even if your fingers were blistered and deformed, and to endure unreasonable pickiness from customers, all year round, would you be willing?

Compared to many industries, the income of podiatrists is indeed high, but do you understand the bitterness behind the high income? If you have the opportunity to go to a pedicure shop, I hope you can be nice to the pedicuretist.
