Hi there, my tanning salon has been open almost 2 years now! When opening, I set my prices very competitively to help me gain clients! (maybe a bit on the cheap side). Between the 5 closest salons to me (my competitors) I am priced the 2nd cheapest. However I really do believe my salon and its cleanliness/service/sunbeds are worth more. I've been working most of the hours myself and it's beginning to wear me down a bit! (long hours!) This Spring/Summer I am also hoping to start opening even longer as I know my customers would like it if I did. So I am hoping to employ someone with more of a permanent position! However this means it will cost me more money, so I am hoping a slight price increase (about 10%) will help cover these costs and help me make the salon even better! When is the best time to do these increases? I was thinking early January when I am quieter as it might not be as much of a kick to the clients as I really don't want to upset anyone! I'm told quite often when going through prices with new customers how cheap I am and I still believe with the slight increase it is still great value for money and I'll still be cheaper than most of my local competition! I'm coming up to my 2nd birthday at the end of January. What's your guys' thoughts? Thanks a lot! ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
