Free Friday

Here at Fahrenheit my customers really enjoy a sale. I mean who doesn't like to get a good price, on something?! I will be the first one to use a coupon or shop the sale rack. However, when I miss a sale, I miss a sale. I don't demand the manager or owner of Krogers to give me the sale price on bacon, when the sale ended 2 days ago. That is not how the world works. Which brings me to my point... I always run a sale at the tanning salon once a week. Sometimes it's a sale on all packages, other times I do a single session sale. In the case of a single session sale, the price of a single session ranges from $6.50 to $8.00 depending what bed/stand-up you want. Most weeks I like to run single session sales on Friday. That gets people motivated to come in and get some color before the weekend.

BUT,... god forbid I don't run a single session sale on Friday. Whenever I don't give a deal on a Friday, it is pure madness at the salon. Don't get me wrong, I love love love my customers, but holy cow, do not mess with the lady that will only tan on sale days! Like I said previously, I love sales, but we have to remember that the income small business, like my own, make, goes to my family, pays my bills, and allows me to continue business. I still have to make some money, I can't be giving out free sessions like lollipops! As long as you are following our facebook page, Fahrenheit tanning, you will ALWAYS know about our sales! Come in and take advantage of them!

Picture of The Day

After a long day of work, dealing with kids, household chores, etc the list goes on, we need a minute, or 20 to unwind! With the weather getting cooler and the sun slowly fading earlier and earlier, the beach can't be your relaxation. Fahrenheit may not be a beach, but in the fall, it is the closest you will get to the beach!

Stop in and get your tan on! Take 20 minutes out of your day to refresh and recharge. Hop in our tanning bed, turn your favorite music on, close your eyes and imagine you're "at the beach." Within seconds you will feel the warmth of the bulbs, just as if it was the sun shining down on your skin. Take a quick nap if you're so inclined. The only thing better about leaving here, you won't be carrying any sand home with you!

I Do More Than Clean Tanning Beds

7 years ago, I was tanning for prom, at a local tanning salon in my hometown. I LOVED this salon. The girls that worked there were so friendly and made me feel like we had known each other for ever. I was currently working at our local Kmart, and hated my job. During one of my visits I was complaining that I had to go to work after tanning. The manager asked me if I would be interested in filling out an application for the tanning salon, they needed some extra help. I thought to myself, how awesome would that be?! To work somewhere I would enjoy!

Upon filling out that application, she immediately offered me the job. And I immediately took up the job offer! Little did I know that, that was the beginning of a huge opportunity for me. To say I loved my job at the tanning salon was an understatement. I loved the close-knit relationships I had formed with my customers. One year after working at the salon, the owner told me that he was ready to retire. But, he was not selling or closing the salon. In a matter of a year, I had proven that my job meant everything to me and I had the salons best interest at heart, and the owner, GAVE the salon to me!

From that day, I have been so lucky to do what I love everyday. Owning a tanning salon is so much more than cleaning tanning beds. It has turned into a family business. Every customer that walks through my door, knows that they belong here, that I want them here. And for the next 20 minutes (how long they can tan) they don't have a worry in the world. If they are having a rough day, my customers know I will lend a listening ear and they can vent with no judgement. I don't have customers, I have friends and family everyday coming to support my business, fahrenheit!
