People love it, it helps sell bottles and they can try out different types. Plain accelerators, bronzers, tingle, etc...

we offer a body bar. i purchase bottles we don't normally sell and i pre-cup everything. so in an 8.5 oz bottle with each shot being 0.5 oz, i get 17 shots. retail the shots so it covers the cost of the bottle and turns a profit. it's a good way to test bottles out before adding them to your selling inventory.

Do you guys do this in place of selling packets or do you offer both?

What about Red Lime lotion bar, anyone try that, though this sounds like it would make more $$$ for me.... Do you just put them out in a certain counter area? How does that work? Do you keep bottles on hand in case they want to purchase the bottle? Also are you using the 1/2 or 1 ounce cups? Thanks bunches.

Redlime is a great idea. Great concept! We looked into it, but a little expensive for us at the time..

WE have been doing a lotion bar for 15 years. We just perfected it the last 2 years. What we did was we purchased a 10 pump dispenser station with professional pumps and 32 oz round containers. The dispenser is 2 tiered and put our PL on the bottom and another line on top. Put the labels around the top of dispener for easy reading.

Our staff pumps the sample for the guest and we charge a flat rate of $5 per 1/2 oz sample cup; fill it to the rim and we sell tons of samples and 8-10x the guest will buy a bottle or just luv sampling the other product until the find one they luv..

Mega $s for you salon and great professional sampling for your guest..

We charge $4 for a 1oz cup.

The pumps site out on a separate bar. When they want a sample we give them a cup from behind the main counter. If they ask for a lid, we will give one. I am looking to add more pumps.

By the way, they can of course mix between them. A little of this and that. Its actually a lot of fun to watch clients make their own "cocktails".
