Rep Power: 0 | Re: need help with tanning specials,tanning lotion specials? need some ideas please!! how are the tanningonline.com beds working out for you? When we first started, i looked at the beds and it seemed like a good deal until you take into account they cannot provide you with any customer service after the sell. When we asked them to meet with us to talk about the eqipment and such, they refused and never heard from them again.... Hope all goes well with you. |

Rep Power: 0 | Re: need help with tanning specials,tanning lotion specials? need some ideas please!! heres a couple things that work really well at my salon. we buy like 2 spa gift baskets, the really nice ones and for the whole month anyone who signs up for a month unlimited gets their name in the drawing for the baskets. People love the "something for nothing" kind of bargain.They are buying tanning which they probably would have done anyway and getting the chance to win something too. I also am going to be doing something this winter to help drive business, I teamed up with the local travel agent and am looking into a 4 day 3 night getaway to an all inclusive resort like sandals or something then for 3 months, Nov, Dec and Jan whoever buys a package is entered to win the trip. this helps get you through your slower months. just a couple of ideas to try. keep it fun and the customers will respond ! |

At this time of year it is not a good idea to double what you purchase at no additional cost. Those are promotions for the slower season. Promotions now should be short term to expose tanners to your salon and to promote up-grade sales and lotion sales. Your main task is consistent contact with your clients, and a very high level of customer service. Sales are created through communication. Without communication nothing gets sold. After you open is not the time to decide how you are going to operate your salon. Not being prepared for success is the main reason for failure in any business. Instead of looking for bits of information that may or may not help you, I think you must adopt a full business model that has everything you need to operate your salon. If I had to guess I would bet that you priced your tanning based on what you saw at another salon, even though you have no idea why it is priced the way it is. This should be a lesson for other potential salon owners. Have a complete business model to look at so you can see what it takes to be successful. Now you have enough information to determine if the tanning industry is right for you. | |
