The tanners that will tan based on a dollar here or there are the same ones who complain about paying for eyewear or about the price of lotions etc. If you maintain a clean salon, keeps bulbs fresh, keep your equipment updated, have friendly and educated staff and have FAIR pricing then you shouldn't have to worry about sharing your prices.

If they get as far as tanning in your salon. The place down the road might be cheaper.

well I have no problem keeping them once I get them through the door! Once they see my salon they don't go down the street!

I believe that. And the sales people are key too. I agree with that totally. I have a cute flip book on my counter and on another counter in the lobby, so if we are really busy we can have people working with both. I need to take a picture of it. I was just wondering if people had Mcdonalds style pricing in their salon. With a big display above the counter and how that worked for them.

well sounds like there is a variety of answers and I guess it all depends on salon decor too. If your salon is more upscaleish than you probably wouldn't put pricing on the wall. We have ours on an easel as Sundude said earlier

I'm going to take a picture of my flip book. It's cute. But you are right, what works for one may not work for another.
But the flip book will have to wait until tomorrow. I have softball practice and 3 kids basketball games today.
Gotta run!

i have 3 laminated flip books like brandy. 1 is obviously on the front counter so we can explain everything to the clients. the other 2 are in the waiting area and have a few extra pages explaining why to use lotion upgrade fees and a few other perks of ours along with some vitamin d stuff.

we dont hand out price sheets. but all our prices are posted on the website.

ebsungirl · 06-23-2007, 09:35 AM

CTM you have Vitamin D stuff in your book?

Posted on large Black boards with white letters that are easy to change if need be. They are high behind the desk so everyone can see and then not have to ask questions unless they dont understand something, but funny you know they still ask Can I get your prices?? Do you have them on a sheet I can take with me. No never! If you want to figure out whats the best deal I will tell you!!
