Salon and spa professionals who share recommendations with clients earn $200-2,500 per month in 2026. The income comes from 45-90 minute appointment conversations where clients ask about restaurants, services, activities, and local businesses. A QR code at the station or a texted link turns those conversations into tracked commissions.
