Kind of a big difference. Price out relamping, it then you'll see how low it's priced.

It should be at least the same as your level 3.

i am running a 40 dollar a month non member on the 2m alone.....are my eft packages too cheap?
SO those are all EFT prices? What are the drop ins for each level? I think I'm confused about the no non member thing with the L2. What made you decide on that? And do you do that on the L3 as well then?

well i have no unlimited tanning for non members ...they can only buy sessions if they chose not to do the eft....the only other option was for them to get the special that was w/o a contract for one month unlimited tanning for 40....my sessions for drop ins r sinlge, 6, and 12 sessions .....maybe i should offer unlimited monthly for walk ins as well....just not sure how i would mark my 3 levels up to be on target

You have 3 levels...so that would be 3 drop in prices, no?

$6, $10, $20...?

Okay, but it's hard to say how the month prices are without knowing what you charge for ONE tan. I know you sell sessions, you mentioned that...I asked what the 1 drop in cost is. Like Din said, usually 6 drop ins make for a good monthly price.

So then you're L1 could go up to $35 but then you do it for members which then most discount.

So if those are for EFTs only, they seem to be good. You could do the x6 for non EFTs.

I think EFTs are whatever you want it to be really. The L1 eft prices will get them in and hopefully they'll upgrade or not use it much.

I don't think you're under at all. I don't do EFTs but I think you're prices are good and someone else can chime in. Have you sold many of the L3 EFTs?

your single seems cheap on a base bed...usually, going rate for just 1 tan is $8.00

There isn't much room to show a discount if you already sell it for as cheap as $6.00. How low can you go from there.....not much.

Maybe $8, $12, $20 would be better pricing.

This way a one month would be $48 and half price at $24 with EFT. This will show the savings and the benefit of signing up on EFT. If it's only a $10 savings, customers wont' bother with EFT unless they see the value they are saving.

I would say raise it quickly....before you get too many clients and they get pissed. Cuz it's easy to lower prices...nobody ever complains. But good luck raising pricing down the road once you've built a big database and you have 2000 clients.
