on Feb 8th, 2010What Do You Want From Your Tanning Salon

Not all tanning salons are the same, and consumers are being more conscious about this. They want to get a deep golden color from their tanning efforts, but they also want to know they are safe, get the information they need, be treated well when they enter the facility, and have their appointment time honored. If a salon can’t offer all of this then they won’t remain in business very long.

One of the biggest issues to be concerned with is safety. Tanning is an option rather than necessity. You don’t want the experience to turn bad due to cords being out where you can trip or the sunning areas not being kept clean. The equipment also need to be well maintained with emergency shut off switches clearly marked.

Information is a key element of the salon services. There are many questions people will have when they come in. All of [...] Continue Reading…

    If you own or manage a tanning salon business, you are aware that the business can be profitable, but that also means that there will be plenty of other businesses competing for those profits. If a business does its job getting and keeping customers, there will likely be plenty of happy returns.

    But there is always that outside chance that that customer base will temporarily or eventually dwindle. Offering services at cheaper prices just means that your tanning salon is guaranteed to be less profitable just so it can be more competitive. That is definitely not a great option for you. So how do you make sure that you are riding the right side of the tide?

    There is one idea that you should give serious consideration to. A totally new concept in the salon business. While your customers are your store for their tanning services, interest them [...] Continue Reading…

    Think of some original marketing ploys to encourage customers to tan at your business. There is already a market for this type of service so you just need to reach out there and grab it. Make sure customers know exactly what you have to offer so they can decide it is the right facility for them. Simply advertising your business isn’t enough due to the amount of competition that is out there.

    What is it that you have to offer above and beyond the competition? These are the things that are going to get customers to come in. A common mistake is to be too broad in your advertising. For example you may say you are a full service tanning salon. What exactly does that mean? For the customers, it could be mean many different things.

    You are likely very proud of your tanning salon so make sure that is reflected [...] Continue Reading…

    There are many interesting and potentially lucrative business opportunities in the world of beauty, and few are as potentially profitable as running a top quality hair salon.

    Top quality salons can profit not only from the often high cost of haircuts but from the top end hair care products they are able to sell.

    The top name hair care product manufacturers often work out very lucrative sales deals with the best salons, and the money to be made in this area often matches or exceeds the money brought in by cutting hair.

    ==Create Your Business Plan Before You Open Your Salon==

    While this type of business can be quite lucrative to the right owner, it is important to know that it is truly right for you. It is also important to work out a solid and detailed hair salon business plan before you do your first haircut.

    Over 90% of all hair products bought in the UK are bought over the counter on the high street, with Tesco recently being voted “Best haircare retailer” in the “Hair magazine awards 2007″ meaning most salons are losing out on a MASSIVE amount of extra revenue. In other countries like Australia, for example, the vast majority of hair products are actually bought in-salon due to stylist and client education and stylists being seen as the hair care experts that they are. In the UK, however, while a client will trust you with their cut and colour, their preferred expert in home care products is still the high street retailer and chemist. This is like hiring a personal trainer to help you lose weight and then ignoring the nutritional advice they give and simply buying what you deem “healthy” from the supermarket.

    So why is this? The 2 most common reasons [...] Continue Reading…
