Lamp Pricing/Lamp Revenue Guide
Question: If I scrimp and save on my next lamp purchase,
I'll be way more profitable! Right??
Answer: Well, not really...at all. Take a look at the table below and compare the
profit per lamp -change while paying $15 compared to getting the lamp for free at $0.00. The
difference is negligible. Note that the cost of the lamps are built into the equation.
Reason: Tanning Revenue is almost pure profit concerning lamp usage.
Lesson #1: Don't buy lamps based solely on price. Buy a lamp that you like! Lamps
that lasts longer will extend your profits.
Lesson #2: Your asking price per session is the key to turning higher profits.
As the chart reveals, your profits are 98% determined by the price per session, not the cost of
lamps.
Tip: Keep your beds full, the profits will take care of themselves. This means good,
clean, operational tanning beds. Keep a well trained staff that encourages safe tanning, and
can promote your products and services with a smile.
