Rep Power: 0 | Anyone do a large outdoor event ? We have a "FEST" coming town - it is the single biggest event in this entire area and people come from all over. What would you do to promote the sunless tanning. Legs ? Obviously no one is coming in their bathing suit so if they have shorts can you just roll them up a bit and spray the legs ? I don't know...I have to do SOMETHING ! this opportunity only comes around 1x a year - I am getting a tanning tent too ! Please share any ideas you have...thanks ! ~Kimberly~ |

I too have passed on a few opportunities that were outdoors. they were going to accomodate me in a modest area in case people wanted to be sprayed in their undergarmets (see if you can't reserve a spot where the booth space backs up to a hard wall of some sort, then -- face the tent in that directions so the clients have the modesty factor covered). Sometimes I feel that I can't optimize representation of my services and be spraying at the same time. Another venue opp. offered me space in two separate locations -- heavy traffic and a place where I could spray because they didnt want me in the same area spraying as the rest of the vendors were selling there apparel or whatever. so they were going to give me two booths for the price of one because of the inconvenience.. This meant requiring someone to meet/greet potential venue visitor/guests -- and then having me receive them for spraying. catch 22. not worth it.

If not you could mix 1/2 clear with 1/2 Tinted solution . Be sure to tell people the cosmedic color will come off on thier cloths. Be sure to get some pre tan prep spray so the clients tan will last longer. Not as good as a full exfolation but it will work in a pinch. I would offer tank tops with your logo on them for sale rather cheap for the person who is wearing white. Walking advertising you can't beat that. |

Rep Power: 19 | Re: Anyone do a large outdoor event ? Depending on what system you have you might have enough power to run 2 guns at a time. You yourself know how fast it would be to just do someone's face real quick. Besides that you spraying someone out in the open will draw a huge crowd. Be sure to have some kind of walls in your booth if it is outside. The last thing you want is the wind to cover people with dust right on top of thier new tan. One other thing to keep in mind. How hot is it going to get? New spray tan and sweat not a good mix. |

Rep Power: 0 | Re: Anyone do a large outdoor event ? The only problem I would see with doing this outside would be the heat. People sweating would leave streaks and ruin the tan. I personally could not risk the chance of bad publicity, even though this would be a great chance to get your name out. |
