What is mobile spray tanning?

A lot of people still have never heard of mobile spray tanning. I was just speaking with someone the other day that told me they just learned about it 4 months ago and now they’ve opened their own mobile spray tanning business.

So what is it?

how to start a mobile spray tanning businessMobile spray tanning is a business where you spray tan your clients in the comfort of their own home or office (or anywhere else for that matter). Unlike a typical tanning studio, mobile tanning gives you the flexibility of going to your clients so that they don’t have to leave the comfort of their own home and the added convenience typically equates to a higher price point for the service.

There are endless opportunities to start a mobile spray tanning business due to the fact that each business will serve a different clientele and will market their services differently.

This niche has been growing rapidly over the past decade. The low overhead and small upfront cost will allow you to get started for under $1,000, sometimes even much less. With that being said, there is significant turnover for those who aren’t serious about starting a business.

Mobile spray tan business salary

As I mentioned earlier, the added convenience of mobile tanning typically equates to a higher price point for the service. People will pay for convenience and people will pay to save time.

Determining the salary and income for a mobile spray tanning business is not an exact science because every business charges different rates, and depending on the spray tan solution and products they use, their prices can also vary.

We’ve created a sample table below to show you the income potential for a mobile spray tanning business.

Mobile spray tanning income potential

*The information is based on 5 tans per week, 4 weeks (20 days/month) working per month and pre-tax income.

As you can see, the income potential for this business model is really amazing. The best part is that there is little to no overhead and you can get a starter kit for less than $1,000. There aren’t too many other businesses that you can start with such low upfront investment. In fact, a lot of the starter kits come with enough product to make back your initial investment with the products that are included in the kit itself.

Pretty amazing if I do say so myself!

Mobile spray tan business plan

I like to keep things simple when it comes to getting started with your business.  A lot of people over think the process and what they need to get done and it keeps them from ever getting started.

I can’t tell you how many people I’ve spoken to that have been sitting on ideas for months only to never get started. On the other hand, there are people who just jump right into it and they typically find more success.

“Imperfect action trumps perfect inaction”

This is one of my favorite quotes to share with people because it is so true. It doesn’t matter if what you do isn’t perfect. Frankly, it never will be. However, you have to get started in order to get the momentum to create your business and then you can make the necessary changes as you move forward.

Some people that are thinking about starting a mobile spray tan business want to make sure they have everything planned out, including a business plan. I found this great but simple business plan through a website called the $100 Startup. What the author did was create a one-page business plan that has everything you need in a simple format to help you actually get started.

Here’s what is included:

Overview of the business

  1. What will you sell?  We are planning to sell spray tanning services to the local community.
  2. Who will buy it?  We plan to market to people who currently go to tanning bed salons, sit out by the pool/ocean or people who are currently going to a salon for sunless tanning services.
  3. How will your business idea help people?  Our focus will be on providing safe & natural looking spray tans and preventing people from spending hours in the sun or in tanning beds.

Ka-Ching

  1. What will you charge?  We will charge $40 per mobile spray tan.  Our introductory offer will be $25 for the first spray tan and our goal will be to sell people a package of spray tans.  The packages will be 3 tans for $100 or 5 tans for $140.
  2. How will you get paid?  We will sign up for Square to allow us to easily charge clients when we arrive at their location.  We will not take cash or check because we don’t want to deal with possible faulty checks or fake money.
  3. How else will you make money?  We will sell retail items offered by the spray tan solution provider that we decide to use.  Secondly, we will upsell packages to try to create long term income, versus one-time appointments.

Hustling

  1. How will customers learn about your business?  We will create a website for our business, Facebook page, Instagram account, Yelp account, Google My Business account.  In addtion, we will go out to local service providers that don’t offer sunless tanning services, but do offer complimentary services.  Some examples are hair dressers, estheticians, wellness spas/resorts, wedding shops, bridal planners, and more!
  2. How can you encourage referrals?  We will make sure that we cross refer people and send people to our referral partners as much as possible.  In addition, we will offer free tans for anyone who is a referral partner. We will receive more word of mouth marketing if they are wearing our tan as much as possible.

Success

The project will be successful when it achieves these metrics:

  1. Number of customers – 10/week
  2. Annual net income – $19,200 (10 tans/week @ $40/tan)
  3. This is simply a side business at the moment, so $19,200 is a great “side” business!

Obstacles and Challenges

  1. Specific concern or question #1 – Will a spray tan turn me orange?
  2. Specific concern or answer #1 – No, spray tans no longer cause the “orange” effect that they are so well-known for.  Spray tan solutions have advanced significantly and most people who are seen on TV are wearing a spray tan.

As you can see, that is pretty quick and easy.  If you’ve ever seen a traditional business plan then you know that this is quite the contrary.  It took me less than 10 minutes to fill out that information. And while it may not be perfect and things may change, it is enough to help me get started.  

That’s the whole point of this exercise.  Traditional business plans require you to show numbers and predictions and a bunch of other information to help secure funding from investors.  Luckily in this business, the startup cost is low so you probably won’t need any “outside” money.

New training course: How to start a successful mobile spray tanning business

A step-by-step guide to creating your very own successful mobile spray tanning business.

Even though I’ve put together an entire guide on starting your own spray tanning business, I wanted to take some time to put together a quick and easy guide specific to mobile spray tanning.  You can always reference the other guide if you want more details or check out our OMG Business Training.

Mobile spray tanning price list

Pricing your services is one of the questions I see most people ask when they are first starting out. The issue with asking other people what they charge is the fact that there are too many factors to take into consideration when you are determining your price.

First off, your demographic and the actual location of your business plays a huge factor in determining your price. You can ask people in any Facebook forum and you will get pricing all over the board, from $20 per tan all the way up to $300+ per tan.

So how do you determine your pricing?  I’ll give you my two cents.

For me, this goes back to understanding what type of clients you want to attract to your business. There are people who are focused on the number of clients they get through the door and don’t necessarily care about the quality of their clients.

Then there are people who want to deal with high-end clients and don’t care about the number of people through the door, but instead the quality of their clients. You can charge a higher price and get less clients, but that may be the best choice for your business.

Scan the competition

Although I don’t like to look to the competition for ideas, we can get an idea for what the market can support by looking at other businesses in the area.

Simply go over to Google and type in “spray tan” or “spray tan near me” and check out 3-5 competitiors websites. From there, jot down the prices they charge just to get an idea. Now, this doesn’t mean that they are right because they probably didn’t read this awesome guide ;). However, it does give us a good place to start.

Now that we have this information, we can go back to our previous point about the type of client you want to serve and finding your ideal client.

After that, we have an idea for a ballpark of what we want to charge. Notice that I’ve done all of this research and thought about my clients, etc, etc, without ever mentioning the cost of products, equipment or anything else.

We could get really granular and calculate it down to the pennies, or we can get a general idea based on some pretty common numbers in the industry.

For instance, most brands charge anywhere from $35 - $65 per quart/litre of solution. So let’s calculate that down a bit.

$35/quart = 32 ounces of solution. We use about 2-3 ounces of solution per client. So worst case scenario, let’s say we get 10 tans out of a quart. That’s about 3.2 ounces per client.

Now, let’s look at these two scenarios based on the pricing listed above:

  • $35/quart / 10 tans = $3.50/tan
  • $65/quart / 10 tans = $6.50/tan

Now, $3 more per tan is quite the difference, in fact, almost twice as much. But it’s still VERY low for most service based beauty businesses. To learn more about finding the best spray tan solution for you, check out our Ultimate Guide.

Any other items that you include in your tanning services will be minimal. For instance, barrier cream costs around $10 for a 16oz bottle and will last you for at least 50+ clients. For pH balancer, you are looking at around $10 for an 8oz bottle, and again, you can get around 50+ tans from that one bottle.

There are a few other small items that you may use, such as:

  • Disposable underwear
  • Disposable bras
  • Hairnets
  • Sticky feet
  • Powder

All of these items combined should cost you under $1/client. So if we look at the $65 quart and add in the additional items, you are looking at around $8/client total (including all of the items listed above).

I know I bounced around a bit through the pricing section, but I wanted to give you the resources to help YOU determine your own pricing. This will be helpful as you move forward as a business owner.

Mobile tanning equipment

There is no exact science to finding the best spray tan machine, but what I will cover is the basics and what you should look for in determining the best spray tan equipment for you!

Pretty much everyone I speak with about spray tanning equipment wants a couple of things:

  1. A good machine
  2. A quiet machine
  3. The best bang for their buck

And all of this makes sense.  One thing to note is that the noise level of MOST of the machines used for spray tanning are all VERY similar in the loudness of the machine.  Since spray tanners use high volume, low pressure (HVLP) machines, they produce a lot of power and thus they are louder.

Traditional airbrush machines are quieter, but they also take much longer to spray tan a client.  An average HVLP tan takes about 3-5 minutes, while an airbrush tan can take 30+ minutes.  I'll opt for the louder machine and shorter time myself!

Mobile Tanning Essentials

Below is a list of items that I recommend for you to have on hand during your mobile spray tanning appointments.  This isn't an all-inclusive list, but it will include a lot of items that most spray tanners keep on hand.

1. Sticky Feet

These were created by a good friend of mine that has been in the industry for over a decade.  They have some great advantages over the normal sticky feet that you buy elsewhere.

2. Sjolie ph balacing spray

One of the most popular products used daily for spray tan artists is a pH balacing, or "prep" spray. This helps you to optimize the pH levels in the skin to achieve a darker tan that lasts longer. For only $8 it's a no-brainer.

3. Sjolie Pro-Blend Barrier Cream

Barrier cream is used to help prevent solution from getting onto specific parts of the skin and body, such as dry spots, hands & feet. The Sjolie Pro-Blend barrier cream is the best on the market.

4. Black Salon Towels

These towels are great to use for your client so they can stand on them and not worry about getting solution eveywhere.

5. Hair Nets

It's important to make sure that you keep your clients hair out of their face during the spray tan process so that it doesn't affect the tan in any way.

6. Disposable Thongs

It is HIGHLY recommended that your client always wears underwear or some type of protection during the spray tan process. You should have these on hand at all times.

7. Disposable Bra

A lot of female clients won't wear a bra during their spray tan session, but they are nice to have on hand, especially to offer to your clients.

You won't regret it!

My biggest advice if you are deciding DIY versus Happytans to create your website is to just have them do it! I attempted DIY first but honestly it took so much time and there was definitely a learning curve. With that being said, once I threw in the towel and upgraded for them to take care of creating my website, they did not disappoint! Gary did a wonderful job and kept in good communication with me throughout the entire process. I know that this is definitely a great investment for my business. It is evident that the Happytans company takes pride in the services they provide. Grant and Gary truly care about your business success! Thank you again!

Customer Service and Support

We built our site with Happy Tans back in summer of 2021 and have now gone through several iterations with Grant and Gary. Their response time is truly second to none. More recently, I was so thankful for Grant and Gary going above and beyond for us after I was clicking around too much in Google Domains and inadvertently made our site go down. Even though this was self inflicted, they came to the rescue quickly!

From the very start, all my questions were answered in detail to make the daunting task of starting a website actually to be not that daunting at all...thanks to Happy Tans! Grant started me off with all the info I needed. The video chat and tutorials are an really excellent feature. Pricing was transparent, no hidden fees. Gary was my direct contact for design and he went above and beyond. I submitted everything right before the Holiday's since I had a little down time and did not expect them to be as fast as they were during that time. I am forever grateful. Did I mention my website is GORGEOUS?! Thank you so very much Happy Tans! Highly recommend to anyone in the biz.

It was definitely a pivotal point in the growth my business and clientele. And over the years one of the main things I hear all my clients say is that they loved the professionalism of my website and that’s why they chose to book with me. Grant has been by my side ever cents as I grew my business and rebranded. Grant helped change my website and update it multiple times. He is so kind I can reach out to him and he personally gets back to me within a day, he has now designed many websites for my friends in the beauty industry, and as even now designing a website for my husband’s construction business.I’m forever great full for happy tans they are stuck with me for life!

Hype For Happy Tans

Happy Tans created a beautiful website for our new business. I'm so glad that I chose to have them build it for us rather than try to build it on our own! They helped guide us step by step through the process of getting the site live. Even after the website was finished, they continued to help and answer questions. The customer service is absolutely the best there is! Gary is super patient and able to understand what was needed even when we were not sure ourselves! The best part is that they know the beauty biz. They are working with businesses just like yours and can offer insights in a way that other website builders can't. I 100% recommend Happy Tans!

Beautiful work by caring friendly people!

I cancled my Wix subscription when I came across Happy Tans. I knew the importance of my business website and had the vision of what I wanted to create and portray. However, every time I sat down to construct it - I was overwhelmed - I had vision but lacked the tech skills and precision to execute the site the way I wanted it. I had to stop wasting precious time and energy agonizing over this crucial task in my business. I knew hiring Happy Tans was the solution to this. The price point is incredible for what you receive. My website is absolutely gorgeous and my vision was brought to life. Gary was so easy and pleasant to work with and very gracious about any edits I needed to make.Thank you, Happy Tans!

Love my Happy Tans website!

I have had my sunless business for a few years and created my own website. I wanted to have more exposure and SEO and that's when I found Happy Tans!

You had me at "drag and drop"

I have used almost every type of website builder (Go Daddy, Shopify, Wix, WordPress) and when you limit cost, the quality goes with it; some were so difficult to create on and modify. But NOT HappyTans. It is so quick to update and whenever I had questions, the team got back to me in under 24 hours with a clear answer (most times a video to show me how it's done). They also offer a done-for-you option where you can get the website done by them, but I felt comfortable modifying and building in platform. The price is a nonnegotiable as well; you'll pay this cost almost everywhere you go for a website that has quality BUT you won't get this level of support without hiring a web developer to do the tasks for you. I sing the Happy Tans praises all day and love referring other tanners to Grant and his team. Not to mention, this website makes me money; my clients tell me so during their appointments. Thanks for creating such an awesome, user friendly website platform.

I’m so proud to say that this website is mine. The entire process was very easy and detailed. Grant and his team are amazing and I highly recommend them!!

Just do it!

I’m not even sure where to start because there’s so much I’d like to say about Happy Tans but the one thing that I’d really like you to know is that if you are sitting on the fence about Whether or not you should sign up, don’t waste another minute and just do it!!!!! I wasted almost 2 years trying different things, wasting time and money when I should have just signed up with them from the beginning! They took my worries of trying to build a website that was functional and did it all for me. Anytime I need to add or change something,Gary is right there to help! Anytime I need anything else Grant is a phone call away! They make it personable,I’m not just a number to them. Did I mention my website is awesome?!

Happytans Gets It!

I’ve been using happytans for several years and I can honestly say my website has played a HUGE role in building my business. I have new clients frequently comment on how professional my site looks and how easy it is to maneuver around in it. I love the ease of being able to make changes at any time and if I do run into a challenge, customer service always responds back in a timely manner. Since happytans is geared toward the sunless tanning industry they get it and know exactly what I need. Highly recommend!

Great Bang for Your Buck

I’ll be honest…I’m very frugal and was reluctant to upgrade to Happy Tans. I wasn’t sure the investment would be worth it….boy, was I wrong! My business volume has *doubled* since I hired Grant & his team to re-work my website. Overall, this service has been one of the best “bang for the buck” for my business!

10/10 Would recommend!

I'm so glad I trusted HappyTans with my website! Grant patiently answered all of my nine million questions (I am not good with computers) and helped me build exactly what I was looking for. It has added something that I had no idea my small business really needed!

Great service

I had a rocky start at first with my email getting missed but Grant absolutely made up for it and even helped to create my site due to the mixup! Customer service is great and the website is beautiful and easy to customize with the builder. I highly recommend Happy Tans!
