Re: Strictly Spray Tan

No mobile... you GO to get your hair cut, you GO to get a massage, you GO to the salon to tan, offering this service is NOT nessesary.

Tanning is a niche business, in order to maximize income potential it is important not to target a small segment of an already reduced market. it would be like opening a restaurant that only served french fries.

Re: Strictly Spray Tan

Thats not true. I only do airbrush after selling my salon with beds. If you can corner THAT market, you can be sucsessful. Try renting a room in a gym.

Re: Strictly Spray Tan

What Steve said was "in order to maximize income potential". He didn't say you would fail if you only did spray tanning.

Re: Strictly Spray Tan

Right, but to "maximize income potential" for one person may not be the same for another... to "mazimize MY income potential" airbrush was the best and only way for me. Maybe she doesnt have the means to buy or open a huge salon and would like to start some where. Airbrush is a very good route.
