The MIKAL Recession Buster System is a software package that integrates features that will drive your business marketing and management to the next level. Many of these ideas can be done, have been done before, or have been done by someone else but NOT at the same time with a consistent strategy!


Let’s learn how other successful salons and spas use the MIKAL systems to grow their businesses in these challenging times.

Fred Dengler, Co-Founder of MIKAL thoughts on this all new Recession Buster business approach:

Over the last four years I have been involved in teaching more business management classes that in the previous ten years. I have also audited many other consultants’ classes. From this exposure, research, and combined with the all new features and reporting power of MIKAL SIX I have developed the only software in the industry that directly uses the most powerful tracking, reporting and marketing tool in the industry and combined this tool with the strategies and systems needed to revolutionize your business.

We have to ask in your business – where is the WOW?
MIKAL will design the Recession Buster Success Plan based on your goals – sales, staffing, and systems – to create your new approach. Three major areas of your business will be evaluated and a customized plan based on your goals will be created using all new marketing and management strategies

We get serious about your Sales goal – increase sales and profits. We will research and evaluate every option you have in your business to increase sales and profits. Learn how to implement incremental sales. Evaluate your service menu to maximize profits. Find out new ways to create an add on environment. Redesign your retail sales strategy to eliminate the stress of closing sales and increase retail sales to up to 30% of your gross sales. Use all new evaluation systems to make sure every service is profitable – or eliminated!

First we have some questions for you:

What is your business? __________________________________________________

Knowing your numbers will give us the insight and power to make decisions. Having clear financial goals makes it easy to evaluate marketing and staffing opportunities, weak areas, and expenses. In most cases we make decisions based on less information and more gut feel or heart. In today’s environment we can’t afford to do that and make mistakes. We also can’t wait to long to change a direction or strategy if it is not working.


We deal with limited resources every day. Only so many hours in the day, so many employees, so much money to spend on marketing and staffing, only so many clients and price points that can only be changed to some degree because of competitive forces.
