Increasing Spa Sales in Five Minutes
Spa managers are busy people. That’s why it’s important to have tried and tested ways to quickly improve your retail sales. Here are five methods guaranteed to not only drive your sales up but inspire your staff to new heights.
1. Conduct a daily status meeting.
Not only for senior management or department heads, the best managers set expectations, inform on the hot items to be sold and “take the temperature” of their team each day. Giving a brief readout on the previous day’s performance can help to steer your team in the right direction.
2. Use a selling mantra
If retail sales are weak at your spa create a mantra for the steps to follow during the process. Tell, smell touch sell works to remind your team of each presentation step towards a product sale.
3. Lead a brief meditation
Who knows what your staff has on their mind when they arrive at work. Help them to “clear their space” by leading a brief meditation or positive envisioning session. Have them imagine themselves having a great day and making brilliant product recommendations to their customers.
4. Use Recommendation Pads
Have your therapists list their product suggestions on a pad for post treatment feedback. File them away for later reference if your spa has an on-line store. Include the recommendations in a follow up thank you to your client.
5. Select two favorite products
Instruct your therapist to choose two of their favorite all purpose products and sell at least one to every spa client that day. Create a contest to see who sells the most and reward the top seller with a great prize or recognition.
