You will get some replies if you structure your post more comprehensive. Advice on here is free - take it for what its worth. Hire a consultant. My advice - buy existing salon, or its contents and move there.

What this? 35 uv, 77uv? You coping this from Ergoline catalog? Your disty is pipedreaming you.

16 year olds in WI have bunch of money? Your target is (should be) 25-45.

Carribbean Island Tan · 03-17-2008, 10:36 AM

BUY USED BEDS!!! All of these can be found used cheap.

Carribbean Island Tan · 03-17-2008, 10:37 AM

Forget what beds you get - what you charge for them?

You dont have enough AC. Electric is borderline enough. I am responding by pieces becaus i just cant read your post at once.

It is EFT not ETS programm. You are going to buy 25 000 Affinity 500 and charge 13 bucks for it on single session?!
