Re: how many people should a 8 bed salon bring in during the busy season?

With 810 beds I would say 70/day is your "break even" point. Busy season should get you 120+ but these days I'd cut back at least 20%.

So I would say if you are averaging 100/day you are all set.

Off season should be 50-60/day

This is VERY ROUGH GUESSTIMATE as no one knows what beds/lotion/location you have.

Re: how many people should a 8 bed salon bring in during the busy season?

to give you an idea on what I have. I have 8 units total.

(1-360HP, 2 mattress HP, 2-15min VHR, 1-12 min Standup and 2-20 min base beds)
We do about 80-95 tans per day in season. I think the most we have ever done is 115. Off season we do about 40-50 tans per day.
