Still getting my "sea legs" since we've only been in business for a year, but we have given away free tans for certain things...

Our community has a "Girls Nite Out" event for charity. The tickets are $25 each and about 100 gift bags are given out. The event caters to our target market and we've gotten a 100% package purchase rate from the ones that have been redeemed.

Secondly, I will give free tan cards to customers that have brought in business or those who I feel will bring in quality customers. I usually give two cards and tell them they can use them themselves, or give them to people they think would like it. Everybody likes something for free, and they are quite happy with the gesture.

Both the cards and the certificates are unrestricted- any unit, any time, and it has worked for us.
