How do you compare to last year? How's the economy in your area? There is no realistic answer any of us can give you. My two salons vary from each other in demographics and economy, so they can't be compared to each other.

how many do you need to see to pay the bills? to make a profit? If you are in an industrial area have u posted flyers in all the lunch rooms to attract new clients? referral programs? lots to do in an area like that.

These are all good responses? There are no set numbers of people that you should be seeing.
Are your sales up from last year.....if yes you are doing something right.
If not is your per person sales higher??? You are doing something right when you get them there but need to figure out how to get them there.
If your per person average sales are down you need to educated your clients more on "good tanning practices".

80,000 blue collar workers, and NO competition = busy year round.
