corporate update SUNTAN SUPPLY Sarah Gilbert Joins Suntan Supply Just in time for their annual trade show, Suntan Supply brought on a new member to the team. Sarah Gilbert was hired in December as the new social media specialist. Sarah will be working on some of the company���s online sales as well as overseeing their Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites. ���I���m looking forward to bringing my experience and love of social media to this position,��� says Sarah. She hopes to add to Suntan Supply���s online presence and have the company covered on all social networking fronts. Sarah graduated from Kent State University in 2011 where she majored in Electronic Media Management. Since then she has offered her social media savvy to various entities and kept up with her own personal blogs. This position at Suntan Supply is her ���rst full time job and she is excited to start her career at the company. SUPRA The Supra HP Lamp Collection and TanToday To consistently win Industry Choice Awards ���ve years in a row is actually more humbling than a certain euphoria would allow. It truly puts pressure on yourself, your staff, distributors and the guys in manufacturing to not just maintain status quo, but to excel and become an even better organization. Supra Brands Group is of course a company whose humble beginnings goes back to the very start of our industry 36 years ago when I arrived in San Francisco ���fresh off the boat��� at the age of 26. We who have been here for a while have seen several ups and downs in the industry, which is consistent with any industry ��� bumps do occur ��� small and big. Even though at times things appear tough, as business people we have to forge forward, stay positive and always strive to better ourselves, our products, our services and above all project a more professional stand for our industry. In 2011, we acquired TanToday, now the industry���s premier discussion board, with two consecutive wins in this category. This means that we not only have an obligation to the industry, we have a responsibility to show in an open forum what our industry is all about. Our job at TanToday is to consistently and thoroughly try to help current and new salon owners through the various forums. I believe that we and our moderators, in collaboration and with continuous help from salon owners, distributors and manufacturers, can accomplish this. Both Supra and TanToday are also supporters of the ASA, Sun is Life, the Smart Tan, the ITA and any organization that works for the industry and will continue to be so. - Leif Vasstrom, Principal of Supra Brands Group 113 SMART TAN MAGAZINE ��� SmartTan.com
