Talking More Pricing (Woodlands)

Speaking of pricing (and understand this is a small town and these are the going rates - I know they look REALLY low to a lot of folks). These are what they already have in place except I added the 20 minute bronzing beds and 1 and 3 month bronzing bed unlimiteds.

I'm trying to figure out how much to charge for the bronzing beds 1 and 3 month unlimited. (EFT is being worked on but this place is in such disarray that I'm spending most if not all of my time getting product codes entered into Helios). I'm thinking of $84 for the 1 month and $195 for unlimited. Comments?

Super Beds – 20 minute beds
1 visit - $4
1 month unlimited - $45
3 month unlimited - $110
10 Super Bed visits - $38
20 Super Bed visits - $70
*upgrade to High Intensity Bronzing Bed
for $3 per visit with any package above

Minute packages:
100 minutes - $25
200 minutes - $40

High Intensity Bronzing Beds
12 and 15 minute beds with facials
1 visit - $7
1 month unlimited – ????
3 month unlimited – ????
10 Bronzing Bed visits – $60
20 Bronzing Bed visits – $125

Minute Packages:
100 minutes - $46
200 minutes - $85

Edit - I just realized the rates for the bronzing beds visits are wrong (they are what the current owner is charging but don't make sense as they are charging more for the higher amount of visits bought). I will be changing these to 10 for $65.

Edit again - I think I need to change the visit rates for the bronzing beds completely.

HELP.

20 minute beds....

The month rate is not "bad" at $45. The 10 tans I would move to $40 if you dont want to move the pricing too much. But the per-visit should be at least $5 if not $6 or the 10 for $40 makes no sense. I would also consider a 5 pack.

Not being familiar with the beds other than being 20 minute something like this would make more sense:

1 visit = $7
1 month = $45 (or $50 really)
5 = $30 ($6 per visit) Sale price, $25
10= $50 ($5 per visit) Sale price, $40
15= $60 ($4 per visit) Sale price, $50

Each time you bump up to a higher quantity the price should drop a uniform amount, in this case one dollar per tan.

When it comes to the bigger beds consider simply adding $10, $15 or $20 to each package. So a 10 pack would be maybe $60 or $70 and same amount for a month. This helps when selling packages to.

DUMP THE MINUTES!

Re: More Pricing (Woodlands)

Yeah, the problem is that the customers are all just SO excited that we are a dollar or two lower than the one other salon in town so I hate to play with it TOO much.

I'll do the proportions though and add the smaller packages. For this area, the amount for the bronzing at 20 visits will just LOOK like so much to them - not too many will figure out it's cheaper per visit - honestly, lol.

Drop the minutes, eh? I always tanned with minutes myself because I never knew if I was going to be traveling and stuff.

Oy Vey.
