Mobile Tanning Compressor vs Salon Compressor

By Katie Quinn Tanning

Mobile Tanning Compressor vs Salon Compressor

A lot of artists ask me which compressor is best for them, and it really comes down to the compressor's use. I recommend a high-volume compressor like the Iwata-Medea Studio Series Power Jet Lite for salon use, since it's larger and bulkier than a tanning kit usually allows space for. However, it stays cool to the touch and is nice and quiet, which is ideal for small tanning studios and spas. The Paasche DA400R below is small, light, compact, and fits seamlessly into my tanning kit. … [Read more...]

THIS Will Identify Your Spray Tanning Demographic

By Katie Quinn Tanning

THIS Will Identify Your Spray Tanning Demographic

The fact that just about EVERYBODY loves a good spray tan makes it tough to pin down a target demographic! Marketing too big can lose impact, and having too small of a focus can get repetitive. Many spray tanners struggle with narrowing down their demographic to target their most COMMON clients, while still reaching those surprise clients who can be incredibly loyal. The best way to identify your demographic is to sit down and draw a sketch of your most likely client, similar to … [Read more...]

Spray Tanners: How to Raise Your Prices Without Losing Clients

By Katie Quinn Tanning

Spray Tanners: How to Raise Your Prices Without Losing Clients

It's awkward and uncomfortable to talk about, but to keep up with inflation and cost of living increases, you're going to HAVE TO raise your fees at some point. Hopefully several times, which means you are enjoying a LONG career in the spray tanning world! The start of a new year is a great time to plan your rate increases, and it's always a good idea to warn your clients ahead of time. I like to give my clients 2-3 months notice, by letting them know my rates are going up in the new … [Read more...]

Location, Location! Front Page Website Must-Haves

Web design is hard, and beauty pros (and pretty much anyone else!) can find themselves totally overwhelmed by the idea of designing their own website! There's no need to design anything too massive or in-depth, as long as you make sure your website has the following information listed on the FRONT PAGE: Business name Phone number (with area code for people searching services by area code—better yet, list all local area codes. Example, in my area, I use: “servicing 949, 714, 562”) All … [Read more...]

Now Available! Spray Tanning 101 – Katie Quinn’s Spray Tan Training DVD

Over the last year I have spent every waking moment working to develop a training DVD that will completely streamline the way artists learn how to spray tan! As a busy mom running a business, I don’t have a lot of extra time for my in-person training classes anymore, but I didn’t want to give up teaching. So I took the most important tools and techniques from my one-on-one private training, and I filmed ACTUAL spray tan sessions using ACTUAL clients. I included the three most common body … [Read more...]
