Monetary motivation. This is the most fundamental way to motivate the staff of a beauty salon.

The decision to provide such assistance, as well as the amount of payment, is determined directly by the head of the beauty salon.
Birthday of an employee. As a material incentive and motivation on his birthday, a beauty salon employee can receive:

- a gift from the team. All colleagues of the birthday man present him a common gift. The receptionist of the beauty salon can solve the organizational issue of collecting money and buying a gift;
- a personal gift from the owner of the salon. In this case, the gift is bought at the expense of the head of the beauty salon. The most important thing is to try not to single out anyone and to buy gifts of equal value to all employees, thereby expressing equal respect for all employees.
