How Erik Bostrom Got Started With Hand and Stone

At only 30 years old, Erik Bostrom is a veteran of the franchising industry by association. His father is a 20-year industry veteran who is a master franchisee for Coverall. Growing up, Bostrom learned the ins and outs of franchising and at the fresh age of 28, Bostrom decided to follow in his father’s footsteps, but with a new, young concept in an evolving industry. Bostrom has become the Regional Developer for Hand & Stone, a 30-unit massage and facial spa franchise.

Prior to stepping into the franchising world, Bostrom received a degree in Computer Science from Montana State University. He then went to work for Hewlett Packard in product development while obtaining his MBA at the University of Denver. While at HP for eight years, Bostrom acquired the knowledge necessary to run his own business. In December 2008, Bostrom opened the first Hand & Stone in Colorado in Highlands Ranch. As the Regional Developer for the area, he is also responsible for expanding Hand and Stone throughout the state.
