Naturally, it’s the tanning salons that are out there front and center, promoting the industry, selling services and offering up their tanning beds for customers. But there are a few key behind-the scenes players that I think are the industry’s best and most often overlooked secret.
They are Wolff System, one of the largest and oldest lamp providers in the industry; the Indoor Tanning Association (ITA), a great professional association and advocacy group; and the lending groups that we work with to help tanning salon owners obtain the financing they need to start or grow their business.
And guess what? ETS Tan partners with all of them.
Wolff System is one of our biggest partners. Why? Because they’ve been around for years and they’re the best. They were the founders of the indoor tanning industry back in the 70’s and they continue to be a leader of innovation. Here at ETS Tan, we work with them because they know how to provide support and they make the best lamps in the industry. And because the lamp is one of the most important parts of a tanning bed, we want to be partnered with a strong bulb and lamp supplier.

We also partner with sound lending groups to make sure we can secure financing for our customers that are tying to start or expand their businesses. By working with only the best, we ensure that our customers get the best.

As for the ITA, we feel it’s a critical part of keeping the tanning bed industry strong. I was actually one of the founding members of the ITA and I still sit on the Board of Directors. I’m passionate about it and I pledge my time to the ITA because I firmly believe it’s an essential part of our industry. Why? Because strong companies don’t do well in weak industries. But, if we continue to work together, through the ITA, we can ensure the tanning bed industry remains viable and healthy for a long time coming.
