Giving salons time back for their craft: Berkay’s story

I lead a dedicated sales team, helping hair and beauty salons take the step into the digital future every day. My goal is not just to make our customers’ lives easier with our software, but also to support my team daily in going above and beyond.

What fascinated me from the beginning was the combination of an extremely strong product and huge market potential. The beauty industry is incredibly warm and creative, but often lags behind when it comes to digitalization. At Salonkee, I saw the opportunity to create real value: we do not just sell software, we give salon owners valuable time back for their craft.

The momentum and the strong team spirit! You often hear the term startup spirit, but at Salonkee, it is genuinely lived. I was surprised by how fast decisions are made and how open everyone in the team is to new ideas, regardless of their level or department.

Performance-driven, but extremely close-knit. We set ambitious goals and give it our all, but we never let the fun fall by the wayside. Mistakes are seen as learning opportunities, and successes, big or small, are celebrated together. It is a culture where initiative is rewarded and people support one another.

When I joined Salonkee as a leader, my primary focus was on building a high-performing regional sales team. Over time, my scope of responsibility expanded significantly: beyond scaling our team, we have initiated and managed major industry partnerships and collaborations. Combining operational leadership with strategic partnership management has been a great personal development step. At Salonkee, you never stop learning. The dynamic environment constantly pushes you to adopt new perspectives and stay ahead of the curve.

I am especially proud when I see the growth within my team, watching team members exceed their own expectations, reach major milestones, and elevate their skills both personally and professionally. And, of course, seeing how many salons we have successfully digitized together and knowing the tangible difference we make in those owners’ daily work fills me with pride every single time.

We are just getting started. Salonkee is growing at an incredible pace, constantly evolving its product, and entering new markets. What excites me is that we never stop reinventing ourselves while keeping salon needs at the very center. We are actively shaping tomorrow’s industry standard for the beauty sector.

Do not hesitate! If you want to make an impact, take on real responsibility, and be part of a team that sticks together and celebrates wins, this is the right place for you. At Salonkee, you are not just a number, you are actively shaping our growth.
