You can start a rapidly growing foot care business as a side hustle.
Having already achieved success in the foot care salon business under the name "Doctor Nail - Nail Revolution," and possessing ample know-how in home-visit services through the expansion of in-home medical massage, the headquarters is now launching a home-visit foot care business that fully utilizes its existing expertise. The business model is attractive because it allows individuals to learn the techniques thoroughly through distance learning over up to 12 months, enabling them to prepare for opening their own business while continuing their current job, and making it suitable as a side business.
Estimated Startup Cost:Up to ¥5,000,000
Industry:Barber/Bodywork/Medical
Plans Taiyoseki Group, which operates approximately 50 "Doctor Nail/Tsume Kakumei" foot care salons nationwide through a franchise system, offers "Ashi no Trouble 119-ban," a mobile and side-business type foot care service.
With access to the headquarters' foot care treatment know-how, backed by over 40,000 cases, through distance learning training, it's possible to prepare for opening your own business while still employed. This allows for various business developments, such as providing services to elderly people in nursing homes and home care settings, or introducing the service to tourist destinations like hotels, inns, and hot spring resorts.
You can choose the business style that suits you best from three options: a mobile-only model that allows you to start a business as a side hustle without worrying about the costs and risks of owning a physical store; an existing store integration model for business owners who currently operate salons or chiropractic clinics; and a specialized store model where you build a store from scratch. In addition, you can rent our company's proprietary machines, so you can rest assured regarding maintenance, repairs, and model changes to the latest equipment. You will also receive technical support from headquarters that other companies cannot imitate.
Since royalties are fixed, increased sales directly translate into income. Rental fees for our proprietary machines are included in the royalties, so high rental costs won't strain your expenses. Furthermore, technical training can be completed via distance learning for up to 12 months, making it easy for full-time housewives looking to start a side business or those who want to prepare for opening a business without quitting their current job to receive thorough training at their own pace. In addition, we have our own startup capital assistance program, so even those worried about startup costs can be encouraged to take on the challenge.
