How is business after the summer months?

I'm researching still and if I decide to do this by the time I practice and get started it will be mid to late tanning season. I was wondering how the "off season" months are?

Thanks... I'm getting lots of info from this site!

It's called the off season becuase we should just all close and take it off!!!

I can only compare it to the life of a squirrel. In the spring there are lots of seeds, water and food. Then near the end of summer you have to start storing LOTS of acorns for the winter. Coming out of winter you are almost out of food and skinny...then comes spring again. Being funny of course... yet serious.

Re: How is business after the summer months?

With weddings, proms, graduations, pool parties, vacations, folks being outside more, we are just slamming with the spray tanning . I have promoted a new angle which seems to be working also!
We suggest that we can "even out" the "farmer tan" the women just love it!!!
And the "legs look better tanned" idea has been good for us as well! Slow for us is usually just after Thanksgiving untill the week of Christmas then things get going again!!! Have a great day!!!

Re: How is business after the summer months?

Thanks everybody.

besthands... question about even-ing out tans. Do you spray a little thicker over the untanned area or do you just spray everything evenly and it evens out. Does that make sense? Also, the tan legs DEFINITELY look better!! I'm in Texas and we have bare legs with our skirts into late October and I'm always wishing my legs were tan so I don't have to wear some kind of hose or tights. I see where some of you charge for just legs. If I decide to go into the business, I'll definitely offer that!
