A friend of Richard's from Rancho Mirage, California wants to loan Richard and I the money to open a tanning salon up here in Ocean Shores, Washington. Richard and I know nothing about tanning. Richard, being mostly Irish, just tries to stay flesh-tone during the summer months and not turn blue. When I'm in a tanning bed I smell like burning fur. Well, it is burning fur.
So we need some help. Can anyone point us to a business model, and ideally, a business plan for a tanning salon? Richard and I understand the concept of "saloons that are teeming", but not "salons that are tanning".
Richard and I need some income soon.
Always stay sweet,
Sweetheart

Do the research - that has always been one of your strong points. I would think that would be a viable business in a resort area -- if this is a real offer, you should be able to find lots of info on-line for that kind of business -- keep me posted -- Kristen
ReplyDeleteTry this site for starters. and go from there. Do your friends from Rambo Mirodeo know what happens to the population of Ocean Shores in the summer time ... or did they just make a lucky guess? It actually sounds like a GREAT idea!

Sweetie,
ReplyDeleteTanning is the Starbucks of the 09's. See if George Soros is interested in tanning. I know Ari Onassis was interested, because I saw the pics of Jackie O on that island. See if that pale nerd Gates is interested in frying a little. I think tanning is a hot idea. I know Pittsburgh with its 3 sunny days per year is prime tanning territory. How about a dog tanning salon? Anyhow please run with it; you are an entrepreneur of long-standing; tell Rick that tanning is good, but wear a thong over the package; a suntanned 'thang' is not to be envied.
Go for it.
Gem.
