Spa: What’s Up In 2010?
It’s given - the spa is a big industry and is still expanding. And there’s no stopping it. Sometime in November this year, the International Spa Association (ISPA) published its 2010 Trend Watch report, identifying several fascinating craze for spas in 2010:
Customer Service. Great customer service is always the best! You could give the most expensive spa treatment, but when the client isn’t contented with her spa experience, it’s equal to nothing. “As a matter of fact, 87 percent of ISPA member spas are employing customer feedback mechanisms to guarantee they’re meeting consumers’ desires…” Spas should embrace better means then to hand the clients a more satisfying spa experience.
Spa Sampling Menus. This is a primary way to allow spa clients get a sort of “preview” of the several treatments thatthey would like to try on.
Spa Partnerships. This allows spas to broaden their reach by forming partnerships with local businesses that may also benefit from them. In this way, spas are able to promote their business and grow the number of clients by taking the spa closer to the clients. Several strategies can be tried on like discounted prices with partner hotels or resorts. And who doesn’t love a bargain?
Social Media. From tweeting to blogging, and everything in between, it’s predicted that in 2010 social media will continue to be influential in helping spa-goers make decision from what to where of spa. Needless to say, spas should make the most out of social media to gather clients.
Beauty Rest. Not yet very common, but teasing alternative like this can certainly increase the total of spa visits. This simply signifies making that spare time at the spa to catch some forty winks while savoring a restful massage. Or rather more appealing is to just book a room in a spa filled with calming aroma to get more sleep.
These are just few of the exciting trends that the spa industry is eyeing for 2010. Now, there are a bunch of greater things to look forward to for your 2010 spa excursion.
