We have so much more competition with franchises and chain salons, but I really enjoy having the flexibility to make my own decisions based on the needs of my tanners in my market. I don\u2019t have someone else dictate to me what services or promotions \u00a0to offer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What is the most\u00a0embarrassing\u00a0moment you have experienced in the salon?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: My favorite story takes place a long time ago. In the heart of our season, we had three employees working the counter and only two computers going. I stood up in the middle of a sales presentation to close the sale, and when I sit down enter it in the computer, someone pushed the chair into the desk, so I fell down on the floor in front of a lobby full of clients. But we laughed for a long time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What is your biggest accomplishment this year?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: Our biggest accomplishment is reaching our goals as far as reopening and gaining back our clientele. We are hitting membership targets despite the challenges we faced rebuilding our reputation after the closing of the salons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sun Place Tanning \u2014 Rochester, MN Jennie Rebellato, owner of Sun Place Tanning, shared her salon&#8217;s newest TV commercial.
