Gas Prices changing your biz?

Are you seeing it?

I am tanning the same numbers as last year, but product sales are for sure down...

Re: Gas Prices changing your biz?

maybe it's cause you don't push enough bust enhancer products.

it's already helping us it's cheaper to get their tan at our salon then spending $100 in gas to drive to the beaches/shores.

Re: Gas Prices changing your biz?

Heck, I'm so bored, I've even offered to pay for their gas to drive to my salon. No takers yet, but I'm getting some phone calls from New York asking where in Wisconsin I'm located. I think I got a winner here. Too bad nobody else thought of this promo, hah hah.

Re: Gas Prices changing your biz?

gas is $4.13/gallon here. i was thinking for the month of June a single base bed session will be the price of 1 gallon of unleaded gas. it'll fluctuate and the price will keep going up no matter what!

Re: Gas Prices changing your biz?

I think that might turn people off.

Gas prices have not affected anything I have done. I don't worry about them. It is what it is.

Re: Gas Prices changing your biz?

I'm down 30% just this month. The economy has to be effecting most everyone. If people are feeling the same as I, and saying to themselves "I'm not spending money on anything I don't really need", we're in trouble. I'd like a new big vhr tanning bed, but why buy, when I should be selling. If I were up 30%, I'd be buying. I ride my bicycle everywhere and my wife just bought a 150cc motor scooter. The last fill-up in my truck cost me $85.00 and that's going to last me till November.
