When guest Doug Smith and his wife, stylist Tara Summersett Smith opened The Studio + Co. in Florence SC in 2011, Doug was a corporate guy who was completely new to the salon world. Now he's a certified Summit Salon Coach who helps other salon owners figure out financials, marketing and management. In this episode, Doug and Blake discuss the joys and complexities of running a salon company when your life partner is your business partner. (We need to get Tara on the show to hear her side of the story!)

Doug also opens up about the process of selling The Studio + Co. to a former employee -- at topic he also coaches on.
