Rep Power: 0 | After being in this business for several years you would have thought I knew everything. I was just informed that my major competition, a salon called "Express Tan" is actually owned by my distributor, Four Seasons. NO wonder I can not compete with their prices and equipment. Is this a normal procedure for tanning distributors to have a chain of salons? |

Rep Power: 0 | Four Seasons likes to double dip! They throw out this really good line to get you to order from them - - that they'll sell to you at 35 to 40 percent off, but what they fail to tell you is that the deal is not good forever, it's just for a limited time. As you have found out, they like too, to open their own salons in our neighborhoods and try to keep it a secret who they really are. It's just really bad business practice on their part. The word will get around and it WILL catch up with them. |
