Mobile Tan Technician's are a privately owned business that offers airbrush spray tanning services for local salons. Mobile Tan Tech. also provide in--home tanning services to clients in the comfort of their own homes. This service is becoming very popular due to the demand for the spray tan services and not enough salons offering the airbrush tan.
Sunless Tan Masters has started a new leg to their business with Mobile Tan Tech. in selling and training salons on how to use and market the spray tanning to their customers. We also want to offer our spray tanning services to salons who do not want to purchase equipment or who may fill that they cannot perform these services up the standards that they would like.
For salons owners, there are more ways to make money with your salon than with just the beds and lotions. By just offering Airbrush tanning services to your customers and having a professional spray tan provider come in and perform these services, you can make a nice profit. Offering the Airbrush Tan also can help you keep your regular customers coming back for other tanning services as well. When a customer has to go out and find another salon who does offer the airbrush tan, they may like that salons tanning packages more a decide to change salons. Because you do not offer the airbrush tanning in your salon, you can lose your clients to another salon. Having a Professional come in can save you from loosing a customer.
Offering the airbrush tanning to your customers is easy. You need to start advertising this with whatever marketing you already do. Post a sign in the front window offer Airbrush Tanning. Place the Airbrush Tanning on your pricing board for your customers to see. Let your regular customers know that you will be offering these services from now on and let them know that they might like to try it sometime. Give out information such as education on airbrush tanning. There is many things that you can do to get the world out that your salon is now offering the spray tan.
Appointments will have to be made by you and your salon. If you do decide to work with a Mobile Tan Tech. in offering spray tan services, special days of the week will be set up for you to make appointments. If you need these services for another day of the week please contact the Mobile Tan Tech in case special arrangements must be met. After the appointment is made, you will then contact your Tan Tech and let them know the day and time that we are needed. The Tan Tech will need to confirm the appointment. Please try to have customers make appointments in advance by 3 to 5 days.
The system that Sunless Tan Masters is easy to follow and will be easy for you and for us to make and keep appointments. Now lets talk about the profits that you can make by offering a space for us to come in and do spray tanning on behalf of your salon.
The standard airbrush tan cost between $30.00 to $40.00. Mobile Tan Tech will be offering the spray tan somewhere around this price range. This price is inexpensive for customers to purchase and cost effective for use. Out of their price, you will receive a percentage of this for the use of your space and for making the appointment. This is a pure profit for you and all you really did was make an appointment.
There is also a lotion called the tan extender. This helps prolong the life of a spray tan and is very popular with customers who like the spray tan. A bottle of 8oz tan extender cost $18.00. Now this product can be stocked by your salon if you like at the price of $14.00 a bottle, making you an additional profit of $4.00 per bottle. We prefer that you stock this product so it will be on hand for customers to purchase at anytime they may need. If your salon does not want to stock the product, Mobile Tan Tech will have bottles of the extender with them to sell to the customer. You on the other hand will not receive a profit on the lotion if you do not stock it.
So for making an appointment with a client for an airbrush spray tan and having someone come in and perform this service for you at your salon, and selling them additional products like the tan extender, you have made a profit of around $14.00 to $20.00. This is a pure profit. No additional expensive of any kind will be needed on your part to make this extra profit per client. Just think, if you made only 5 appointments for a week then you have the potential of making around $70.00 to $$110.00 in extra profit for that week, doing nothing.
To offer these services to customers, there are a few things that are needed to make this work. A private area is a must. It is best to have a private room like one of your tanning bed or booth rooms. If their is no extra rooms, then any room that will have enough open space (about the size 10X10) will work fine. There is also a option of hanging a curtain or shield in the back area of your salon where there will be no interruptions. This can be discussed with a Mobile Tan Tech in finding a location in your salon that will work for the spray tanning service.
There are a few other things that we would like to have available to use at your salon. Good lighting is needed to give a beautiful tan to your customers. A small spotlight is good to use and would be helpful to Mobile Tan Tech if you can provide them with good lighting. Towels will be needed for services also. Remember that solutions are safe on material and will l wash out easily. Only one, sometimes two small towels will be needed to perform a spray tan.
A regular wall plug will be needed for the compressor. Keep this in mind when finding a location in your salon to offer the spray tan.
These few things are inexpensive and will help Tan Techs perform their tanning services to the best ability for your business. We hope you take Tan Techs into consideration in expanding your business with the airbrush tanning. If you decide to work with us in offering these services for your salon, we will work with you in anyway to help you build your business. After a time of using the spray tanning services and you decide to start doing the airbrush tanning yourself, then ask your Tan Tech for more information. They will be more than happy to help you find the right equipment for your salon and even train you on how to use it. Tan Tech do get a profit earned on selling you your equipment and they work with us, Sunless Tan Masters in finding you the best equipment at the right price.
