Great product, great profits and they are rare around here. Other than that, I will not be adding anything. In fact when I took over I removed a lot, literally trashed it.

Rep Power: 16 | Re: What retail items work for you lately? We only carry tanning related retail. We do sell our salon tees and tanks, but they don't generate much to speak of. Poll your customers, and ask them what they would like to see you offer. I have had my customers fill out surveys twice in 10 years. I offer a free tan to anyone who fills it out. The people who want the free tan must disclose who they are. They will reveal their true feelings of your salon - the good and bad. Be prepared for their responses. |
