............Our salons have done well, but we felt we had hit a plateau 2 to 3 years ago. That’s when John Farr helped us first with our radio marketing and then to realize that we didn't know enough about leadership of our employees, and helped us to sales increases we haven't had in years”. We are paying for his education of us and that has really paid off!

........The best thing I ever got out of a Smart Tan meeting or any other trade gathering was when I heard John Farr speak. Since then he's done a hell of a job on our marketing, radio, Groupon, pricing........

".........For more than 5 years we've been able to rely on John Farr to run our radio marketing strategy. We pay for only 20% of all the radio exposure John got us. He's been great to work with......."

".....Employee engagement is what we'd been lacking. Now with John's help and direction, we've got a much stronger engaged team who cares and sells more............."

John’s Personal Leadership

Ron Lehman- Commtron, Director of Sales, Western Region

“John has the ability to lead a large sales organization and motivate them to their fullest potential. When John was Senior Vice President of Sales and he was my immediate report, John was a great boss. Without being a micro-manager, John had that rare ability to motivate, guide, and allow his sales team to effectively manage their territories. Through his teachings and training our company became the largest entertainment distribution company in North America and at that time probably in the world.”

Jamie Guzzaldo- Vice President, Sales, NBC Universal Studios

“I had the opportunity to work for John early in my career in the home entertainment distribution business. His leadership and management style had a profound positive influence on me and helped shape how I comport myself and how I manage people. I found John to be and exceptional leader, motivator and mentor. John has a rare talent of having exceptional teaching skills combined with the ability to motivate and get the best out of his associates. I continue to utilize many of the tools John taught to this day. They have served me well and assisted me to succeed in my 17 year career at NBC – Universal Studios.”

Testimonials – Tanning Salon Owners

Lisa Simmons – Owner of Tropical Tan, West Columbia, SC

“Thanks John! I have very much enjoyed your webinar sessions and the information has been very helpful. We are currently in the process of getting set up with Gulf Management to handle the processing of our EFTs. I was doing them all by hand but only had about 12 or so (for 2 years). In the last two months, we have added another 21 EFTs and look forward to adding many more!! Thanks for your suggestions!. I look forward to reading your book and getting more valuable information. I don’t know if we are going to make it to the Ergoline show but hope to be at the Smart Tan show in October.”
