The You're FiredSM  studios founder, Ricci Allard, of Manchester, NH opened her first Studio in 2003, and spent a over a year developing a customer service philosophy and studio environment unique to the industry.  The concept was tweaked and perfected between 2004 and 2005 when she opened studios in Salem and Concord NH.  The You're FiredSM advantage that had been developed proved to be difficult to compete with as six independently run Studios have ceased operations in the three markets she opened since 2003.
