Achieving maximum profitability in your indoor tanning business takes more than a steady stream of customers. It’s easy to get caught up in worrying about having enough potential tanners in your area and reaching enough of them with your marketing, but perhaps even more important is making the most of what you already have. To take control of your bottom line, you need to optimize your operational processes, measure and move sales numbers and leverage available tools.
Scott Nichols of UV Utilities, perhaps the industry’s leading expert in optimizing operations, will make his first Smart Tan conference appearance at Smart Tan Nashville 2015, Nov. 13-15, to lead a session in the Business Track. His cutting-edge sales program is proven to be capable of increasing salon sales by double digits in just one year.
The Business Track is just one of the three offered in the new format at Smart Tan Nashville 2015, along with a can’t miss Sunday “Tanning Industry Takes Action” political session. The three-track approach offers three different paths to a profitable year, allowing owners and employees to pick up crucial knowledge and new ideas on marketing, business, and UV that will bolster their businesses in 2016.
Here’s the full descriptions of both Business Track sessions, scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 14:
