Jessica Frost Don’t let cashflow get in the way of growing your business.
With the industry opening back up across Australia and growing faster than ever, keeping up with client demand will be the key to attracting and retaining your clients. A huge factor in the industry’s growth is the rapid advancement in aesthetic technology and the popularity of device-based treatments that take the humble facial more than a few steps further.
But innovative technology can come with price tags that don’t always seem achievable for small business owners. And, on the flip side, you don’t want to risk the investment if your clients can’t afford to indulge in the latest treatments. Luckily, there are industry-specific financing options that can help.
LaserAid
LaserAid has been selling and servicing devices from reputable brands like Candela, Zimmer and Athlegen since 2007 with the mission of helping clients in the aesthetics industry upskill their team and grow their business. Their subscription model provides clinics with predictable and manageable financing that allows them to invest in their business.
“The unique LaserAid subscription plan provides clinic owners with the ability to access the most technologically advanced devices, together with the support they need, including servicing, training, marketing, online store credit and other benefits, whether their aspirations are to grow their existing clinic quickly or venture into the beauty market for the first time.
Laseraid’s subscription plan has quickly become an attractive option for clinics looking for an affordable way to start-up, grow and expand their clinical offering quickly and without the large upfront financial burden,” explains David Quirk, Director of LaserAid.
Expanding their offering further, LaserAid have announced a partnership with Lumenis to give clinic owners even more options.
“It’s always been our goal to offer our clients a complete range of the most advanced technologies available. Lumenis and LaserAid have a shared belief that the core of our industry lies in the treatment room. Marketing brings in clients, a beautiful clinic will get attention, friendly service will put people at ease, but without effective treatments it all means nothing. By combining Lumenis’ technologies with LaserAid’s subscription model, clinics can focus on treatment outcomes, comfortable in the knowledge that they’re using market-leading devices with all the marketing, training and servicing support they need to be successful,” says David.
TLC – Total Lifestyle Credit
TLC is a financing option designed to give your clients better access to medical and aesthetic treatments including cosmetic surgery through flexible payment plans. TLC financing covers all medical sectors and all associated fees including treatment, hospital, anaesthetist, after care, specialist fees, pharma and travel expenses.
“TLC Payment Plans gives all clinics the option to turn indecisive enquirers into a potential patient with no merchant fees or cost to their business. We provide you with all the tools to make the application process super simple. The applicant fills out a simple 30 second client form and we at TLC take over from there. All of the funding options allow the patient to add any MBS or private health rebate back on to their payment plan at no charge and we can have a client approved in as little as six hours,” shares Tim Boon, Managing Director of TLC.
TLC also has a commercial arm of the business offering financing solution that can help clinics with rental and operating leases, commercial equipment loans and options for software that can help you grow your business.
“Striking the right balance is exactly what our financing solutions have been designed to do. We work with you to understand your goals, tailoring the right repayments and length of term to suit yours and your clients’ needs,” says Tim.
