$23.99 per month??? how to stay in business???

if i'm opening up a tanning salon and run a special for $23.99 a month, can i keep my doors open? well, the question is how much power does a machine puts out to equal up to the monthly package. when turning a machine on for one customer with a 20 min session for the whole month would that equal to $23.99 a month. think i said that correctly.

Not trying to be rude here, but go back and take some grammar lessons before you do anything.....

You need to do a business plan and determine what your expenses will be and what sales you are likely to have. Asking if you can make money at 23.99 is a dumb question because it is not that simple. If every one of my customers paid 23.99 a month I would be out of business very quickly.

Really ???

Average Salon 2000 Active Clients per year.

$23.99 x 12 months x 2000 = $575,760.

I think I'd take that for a year.

Then you've already missed the beauty and concept of an EFT program.

Where's Brian's "crack pipe" photo when it's really needed.
