FAQs
Who’s behind Unwritten?
Unwritten is the brainchild of two Aussie business dudes with one bloody great idea – an idea that would empower a growing legion of unsung heroes, embrace the exiled, muscle up the underdogs… champion the Indies!
Rob Aubin has worked in the hairdressing industry for more than 20 years, in software with Shortcuts Software and professional haircare in his family’s business distributing Matrix, La Biosthetique and Great Lengths, while simultaneously leading the education charge with Pivot Point.
Hayden Brooks is an entrepreneurial problem solver – he’s spent two decades working with tradies and improving businesses in finance, property and construction.
Both are Sydney-based mates, on a mission to help the Indie community grow strong, successful solo businesses. Read more about their ‘why’ here.
When will the App be ready?
Currently, the App is in Alpha testing (the fancy way of saying our developers and internal team are the ones pressing lots of buttons and making fake orders right now), but it’s due to move to Beta testing by mid-December 2022. That’s where you come in! We’re looking for Guinea Pigs (aka human Indies) who’d like to be part of this final testing – there are loads of perks *cough* free products *cough* and you’ll be part of pioneering history with us! All you have to do is use the App and give us your feedback. It’s almost TOO easy. Go on, click here to be part of the Unwritten Lab!
Otherwise, the official launch of the App is flagged for Mar/Apr 2023. Click here to join the waitlist and be part of the countdown to the App drop.
When will the Professional Haircare be available?
Unwritten’s Professional Haircare will be launched at the same time as the App (Mar/Apr 2023); you’ll be able to order them straight away from that date.
Don’t miss being among the first to get your hands on ‘em… join the waitlist here.
Do I have to use both the App and the Haircare, or can I choose one or the other?
How much does the App cost?
How does the commission work?
When you join Unwritten, you’ll be given your own unique online shop link. When customers, followers, friends and family purchase Unwritten products through this link, you’ll get a commission from every sale.
But wait, get this. The tech is SO super nerdy, that when someone purchases directly from you or your unique link once, the system automatically recognises them as your customer when they log in to the Unwritten online shop to buy again. They don’t even need to use your unique link! And to encourage them to log in for every future purchase instead of checking out as a guest, we’ll give them a discount on their products when they do.
We know what you REALLY want to know is “how much commission do I get?”. Keep in mind, a huuuuuuge part of Unwritten is about helping you earn passive income, so trust us when we say the commission rates are industry-leading (i.e. ah-mazing!).
Make sure you join the waitlist here so you can view the commission table in the App as soon as it arrives.
Btw – your phone will be buzzing every time you make a sale! Yep, you’ll be able to track your commission in real time via your dashboard in the App, and the best bit is, we pay it to you weekly, so you’ll always have funds for Friday Happy Hour. Cheers to that!
Is the Unwritten Haircare sold through other online or retail stores?
Negative. No. Nae. Nein. Non. Unwritten Professional Haircare can only be purchased through the Unwritten ecosystem. That means either through a verified professional Indie or on our direct to consumer online store – even then, whenever someone purchases a product, an Indie somewhere receives a commission for that sale. So you see, Unwritten haircare is 100% professional, 100% of the time.
Is the App just for hairdressers?
How do I get started?
It’s super easy. Join the waitlist here first and we’ll let you know when the App is ready for download. When you get the message, just follow the prompts to get set up… it’ll take you less than 15 minutes, seriously!
