Need Help - Anyone ever own a massage business?
My step mom is a massage therapist and she wants to open her own business. I have a meeting with her Wednesday to discuss it. It would be helpful if I could pick your brain to understand the total cost of owning and operating this kind of business. It would be in Chicago - thanks
