SunStorm Pricing

[InternationalTan]

for those of you that have a sunstorm or similar bed what do you price it out as? This is going to be my level 3 bed, currently my level 3 is $12 single session, level 4 cyclone stand up (200w) is $14 single session?

[Jones]

$20

[InternationalTan]

$20 for a single session? wow. ok thats big jump for me. my competitors are around $14-16 for singles for higher levels.

[RobertK]

Same as your Cyclone. You are right on between $14-$16 for a single depending on market.

[InternationalTan]

the other 2 salons in town have singles priced at $14 for a sollux 32.3 100w bed, and a $15 160 w sun capsule stand up

[Jones]

Charge $20 single
$12 upgrade with monthly/weekly package
$6 upgrade with eft.

[InternationalTan]

I do not offer EFTs.....

[danggirl]

$12 but this is only because this is my starter bed, if it was my best bed then it would be $17 then next yr $20. Slowly move them up but dont start your price out so low that they wont respect your price raise.

[InternationalTan]

^^ which is what I DONT want to do. The salons in my area are priced pretty low, BUT one of them has a 20 min. 100w system as their level 4 and charge 15.

[Jones]

Start high...easier to go down than up.

[dcjjp1]

Mine is at $15 per walk in. No problems getting it.

[InternationalTan]

yea I am thinking of $15-$16

if you make it a higher price, give clients a FREE one so they can 'try' it out. once they try it, they will get why it's worth the money.

[InternationalTan]

I have extended a free session to my good clients who had sessions in the other bed which it replaced. It definately has the wow factor that people will be attracted to. nice looking bed. has the backlights and everything.....i am also allowing free upgrades for now.....

What the hell is a SunStorm? Lamps and Facials?

[InternationalTan]

Sun Storm by Dr. Mueller or AUVL whichever one. Same thing as an orbit. Has 4 100w facials and 140w top lamps and 160w bottom

[W8INLINE]

If I am reading this right, the sunstorm is a new bed in your salon?

If yes, then price it at $20. If you had it and charged $12 then twenty would be too big of a jump.

[InternationalTan]

Yes sunstorm is the new bed. level 3 bed you see in the prices i listed is the bed the sunstorm replaced. The $12 charge was for the old bed (sonnenbraune silver edition) POS bed

i was thinking $18 for single
$9 for upgrade
5 sessions $79
10 sessions $129? $139
20 sessions $219?

idk im playing around with it i am running a promo tan for $12 til tomorrow (honoring the old price) to get people to try it....

[enuf]

Price walkins higher then you could offer pkgs. that are cheaper around $15 or $16.
