Specifically what trends?

We have been up, too! It is very exciting! And I attribute it to the kids being GONE! When school started, the moms came back. It's been pretty nice. Been able to pay all our bills so far.

Re: WOW WOW WOW, IS ALL I CAN SAY!!!!!

A website is an absolute must!!! I put off a website for several years. Then a couple years ago i finally got around to doing one. Wow when it was up for a couple months i was kicking myself in the butt for not doing years earlier. Facebook is hit or miss for me. I would say hands down my website reaches more new customers than Facebook, but thats just me.

Re: WOW WOW WOW, IS ALL I CAN SAY!!!!!

September does not look good for me. I'm in a college town and we typically get a huge rush this time of year. I am trying to do as much as I can to pull the regulars from last year back in but there is a significant decrease in sessions and sales. August was up from last year so I'm racking my brain trying to figure this out. October is typically a great month but based on how September is going, I'm getting a little concerned. How is everyone else doing after the half way point of the month?

Re: WOW WOW WOW, IS ALL I CAN SAY!!!!!

June, July were good...August was double digit up to LY. September came and my biz cut in half. Half!!!! Confusing and frustrating. The fall clients in NJ have disappeared for me. If October is a repeat I'm gonna have to shut the doors.

Re: WOW WOW WOW, IS ALL I CAN SAY!!!!!

Same here. Tanners and sales are less that half everyday from last Sept. Only save for me was the EFT drafts, which are up from last year, my first year. Blaming it partially on a new salon opened in August in a town 10 miles away. Prices are cheaper than mine, esp the EFTs, but they require a $30.00 sign on fee and a 12 mth commitment, which i do neither. I haven't even had a $50.00 day for awhile.

Efts are up here also. Hoping October gets more action. Halloween is the busiest time for spray tans here.
