Randy Kunkel, co-founder of The Summit and founder of KRS Consulting Group, speaks about his latest venture into the beauty industry, KRS Sales Development. KRS SD was created because he saw a need in distributors "to learn salon management to help save salons, and to help them grow and thrive!" Independently owned businesses often lack the support that is inherent in a corporate environment. We provide the structure and the systems it takes to "grow the distributor with pure intention and a greater purpose by saving salons from closing," he continued. Finally, in 2008 with Kunkel and his team's help 3 DSCs wrote over $1 million in sales and 3 more wrote over $900,000. Website design, development, and hosting provided by
