If you are thinking of opening a tanning business, or are in the process currently, you should start thinking of how you will market it. A well done marketing campaign needs to be started early. However this does not mean that you will need to devote a lot of time to marketing, there are other important areas of business too. Many owners do not think about marketing until it is too late, which affects how many customers will be lining up for to tan. Read the following advice and start planning the marketing for your tanning business now.
Your first marketing campaign should being as soon as you have a location. Let all the businesses in the area know that you have purchased or leased the lot, and what your plan is with it. This will become a conversational topic between them and their customers. Humans are curious beings and they will ask the local owners if they know what is going on. By casually giving them this information you are having them spread the word around for you. You should also post signs on the windows and/or door of your business saying that a tanning business is in construction. The longer people know your business is coming the more they will think about it, and want to visit. Then all it will take is one visit and you can hook them.
You will need to decide on a name for your salon and a logo early. This way you can order your signs in advance. Many shops open with temporary banners where the signs should be. This makes you look very unprepared and unprofessional. People will choose not to even enter your salon assuming the inside is not ready either. Even if you spent months designing it perfectly.
Once you have your logo and name start creating drafts of the pamphlets you will use. A lot of owners wait until they have everything else bought and installed before they being working on the pamphlets. However once everything is done you should be opening for business and making money not trying to piece together a pamphlet and get it printed. By starting early you can create the layout and leave spaces blank for things you do not know. For example if you know the type of membership you will offer list them, and leave the prices blank until you have finalized them.
A few weeks before your tanning business is set to open you should be ready for a full swing marketing campaign. Advertisements, pamphlets and signage should all be ready to go out. You should have a list of good areas to post signs about your salon, and places where you can leave pamphlets. You should also have all the contact information and due dates ready for the local newspapers. Placing grand opening announcements is an amazing way to attract customers. By planning in advance you will be more relaxed when it comes time to open. Also all of your advertisements will look professional, attracting more customers. By putting forth a good marketing campaign you are setting up your tanning business for success.
