Re: What else to sell at the Salon

We sell diet supplements. Thermo-NRG and Plum Skinny. They sell very well especially this time of year. The best part is that they are not multi-level and there is no minimum order. They also offer free samples.

Curious, how much business do you generate with the tanning portion of your business? How many tanning systems do you have? Do you feel you are doing as much tanning business that your market can generate?

Re: What else to sell at the Salon

if your a tanning salon stay focused on tanning. A few complimentary items are ok but at some point it gets ridiculous.

If you cant make a living doing tanning its time to make a living some other way!

I can understand your point of view, but if your a single, stand alone salon why not take advantage of the traffic you have ?

It varies but I never give out numbers on a public forum. I currently have 8 tanning rooms. There are 10 places to tan in about a 5 mile radius that being said I think I could get more of the market.

Brian Oshman always used to say stick to tanning only, I never agreed with him. I am curious why do you think it's ridiculous?

I am making a living doing tanning why not make more?

Re: What else to sell at the Salon

We have a coffee shop in our salon which does great! We sell flip flops, sunglasses, hair spray infinite scarfs, our coffee shop helps us out during slow season. All of our staff is trained as barrista's and tanning consultants. We sell pastry's which are to die for! and all different types of Bagels, sandwiches... so people who come in for tan can also grab lunch and a coffee! It's worked out great!
