Nashville is a wonderful location for events for a variety of reasons – a thriving, thrilling downtown with a convention center surrounded by miles of bars and restaurants certainly isn’t the least of them, but one thing might be even more important. You know the saying – location, location, location. Centrally positioned to the majority of the U.S. population, and with three major interstates converging around its core, Nashville is within reasonable driving distance of thousands of indoor tanning businesses.

With tight budgets, pricey last-minute plane tickets, and big groups attending, many salons are deciding to make the drive to Smart Tan Nashville, Oct. 3-5 2014. Even a 12-hour drive from Philadelphia or Houston can be made pretty reasonably and comfortably in a single day, especially with several people to alternate driving duties.

While flying might be more convenient in some ways, driving is almost certainly the more economical choice, plus it definitely makes it a lot easier to drag all those lotions samples home! And some wouldn’t have it any other way – especially for big groups, the car ride provides an added team-bonding experience and the opportunity to discuss what they want to get out of, and did get out of, the Smart Tan Nashville experience.

But whether you drive, fly, bus, bike or run to Smart Tan Nashville, it’s of course worth the trip. No other industry event features every major equipment provider, nor do they offer a celebrity keynote speaker or the type of educational conference you’ll get in Nashville. When you register for $159, you’re guaranteed to walk away with at least $400 in lotion samples, and you’re also eligible to win a portion of the $100,000 in sponsor prizes we’ll give away, with individual prizes worth as much as $10,000. Tabatha Coffey of reality TV fame will kick off the educational conference that will prepare you to take over your market in 2015, with sessions on sales, marketing, networking, professionalism and more.
