- (1888PressRelease) January 20, 2016 - Bangkok, THAILAND - "Increasing Your Retail Selling: An Online Training Class for Spa Managers" is now available through Spa Standard™ the online learning platform for the beauty and wellness industry professionals. "After more than 10 years of experience in the industry, we saw the need for reasonably priced access to continuing education and professional development, and from there Spa Standard was born," said Spa Standard Founder and CEO Kelly Maack.
"This is the only retail training designed specifically for introverts, the most prevalent personality type found among spa therapists" said Linda Harding-Bond, president of Moontide Consulting. Without proper training therapists will not be able to overcome the aversion that many have to selling. Further they won't deliver advice to clients in a manner that naturally leads to increased retail purchases.
More than 40% of the companies in the U.S. salon/spa industry have flat or declining sales according to data from the Professional Beauty Association. Spa executives are being challenged to survive in today's highly competitive global marketplace. In the midst of technological, demographic and economic change management must find ways to increase profits.
