Spray tanning is certainly a fun & rewarding career either full time or part time. But just like any other business you need to get proper training to ensure your success. There are several reasons why it’s important to get the proper certification through a trusted, top rated and licensed professional.
I have been in your shoes!
Before I built Perfect Glow Sunless into a top sunless brand did you know that I started my career as a part time mobile spray tanner? I was very overwhelmed on what to do first and what to expect. Like you, I had many questions so I joined Facebook groups for advice. But you know what happened? I got many different answers to my questions & in many cases it left me even more confused & overwhelmed. (plus many of those group members were new like me & learning themselves)
It was not the best resource for what I needed to get me up and running quickly so I could start making money. Although forums are a great tool it should never substitute proper training classes. I wasted so much time on forums when I could have been using that time to market my business!
Avoid liability
Let’s face it. Everyone tends to sue left and right these days. You can help avoid liability issues by getting trained properly. Any time you are applying a cosmetic on someone, you need to be educated on how the product works, interacts with skin conditions and other medical issues. When you get proper training you will learn what questions to ask your clients for the benefit of your safety and theirs. When you purchase one of my courses, this will be covered along with many other important things that other courses don’t discuss.
Your reputation depends on it
Learn the right way and find out what the trouble areas are before you make mistakes and wind up losing clients. These days, people are more likely to complain about a bad experience then a good one. Just think about how many Facebook posts you see about less-than-perfect experiences. Referrals are the key component to keep a business thriving and successful. You must make sure you know what you are doing before you start charging your clients
You are your best investment
You owe it to your financial success to invest in yourself! Would you want to go to a hairstylist or nail technician that just learned off of Google or wasn’t trained by a professional? I do not think so & airbrush tanning should not be any different. Build and more importantly, keep your clientele by giving them the perfect airbrush tan experience. Stand out from your competition who might just be winging it. A very minimal investment will earn you more revenue in the long run from satisfied clients.
