5 Tips for hosting a tanning party

Tanning parties are a win-win because not only will you get a mobile tanning experience in your home, but you can get your tan completely free plus chances to earn free product too.  Your friends will appreciate it too because they will get the best price for a mobile tanning experience while having a night out.  Below are 5 tips for hosting a successful tanning party.

1. A small group is best - A tanning party should consist of 6 - 10 guests who will have the opportunity to tan at a great rate.  Get your friends together and with as few as 6 confirmed guests you can tan for free.  Hosts can earn additional spiffs when a friend signs up to host a tanning party too!


2. Choose your tanning area - The tanning area should be a private well lit room with adequate ventilation.  You don't need a large area, just enough space that will fit your guest, tanner, and equipment.  Your tanner will set up this area and help you decide if it will work well. Remember that even your closest friends might be shy to strip down in front of you, so it is important to have the tanning area separate from the rest of your party.


3. Be selective with your food - If you've ever had a spray tan before you might already know the do's and don'ts for a successful spray tan.  If you will be serving appetizers make sure that the appetizers are bite size and not too messy (ex. no buffalo wings that will get all over your fingers and face).  If you are serving drinks then you must have straws (or you might end up with a reverse Kool-Aid face)!


4. Get to know the products - while your tanner is off in the tanning room with your guests, you can take time to help educate your guests why you love these products.  As a host, you will want your guests to purchase additional services or products.  The higher the sales, the more you get for free! Take the time to discuss all the details with your tanner before your party.  Clear and realistic goals will make your tanning party experience easy and fun.


5. Have a ton of fun - This is a no brainer, but sometimes hosting a party can be stressful.  Remember that if you have a friend that you thought might get a tan, but then decides not to - don't worry. Some people just want to get together and have fun with no strings attached.  Just because they say no at the party it doesn't mean they will always say no.  Take and share photos online.  You can always bring your party online (Facebook online tanning party) and continue to make sales and earn rewards.
