Pete Koziell

Starting out as a business owner 5 years ago was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. The biggest challenge was feeling isolated, with little to no industry support. Joining the AHC gave me the resources to turn my dream into a thriving business. I was welcomed into a community of salon owners who I always looked up to and admired.

After switching my membership from another industry support group, I’ve been completely impressed by the high level of standard the AHC offers. Small business ownership can be an oddly lonely road at times, so it feels great to have a strong support group of likeminded individuals backed by solid network of industry representatives.
