 The experience of a distributor matters significantly. Without an experienced distributor, you may face uncertainties about reliability and the ability to deliver quality products and services consistently. You might miss out on the valuable insights, industry knowledge, and strong supplier relationships that an experienced distributor like Heartland can offer. 40 years of distribution experience demonstrates reliability, industry knowledge, adaptability, trust, and resilience. A long-standing presence in the industry signifies a stable and credible partner with in-depth relationships with manufacturers, ensuring access to top-quality products and exclusive offers. As salon owners you need a dependable distributor who can anticipate your needs, an experienced distributor's ability to navigate market changes and technological advancements becomes a valuable asset, inspiring confidence in their capacity to deliver tailored solutions to elevate salons' success.

2. Family Values and Atmosphere - A Supportive Community

 Maybe you've been running your salon for years, and what you desire is a distributor that treats you like family. Without a family-oriented distributor like Heartland, you may feel disconnected and less valued, missing out on the personalized attention and support that fosters a sense of community and belonging. You might not receive the level of care and understanding that a family-focused distributor can provide. Heartland's family-oriented approach creates a supportive atmosphere, where you feel valued and connected to a community of like-minded industry professionals who share your vision. Heartland becomes more than just a distributor; it becomes a support system that understands your unique needs, celebrates your accomplishments, and guides you through challenges, fostering a sense of belonging in the tanning industry. As a salon owner, forming a close-knit partnership with a distributor that embodies family values fosters trust and loyalty, knowing that the distributor genuinely cares about your success. The small business values further enhance the level of customer service and support at Heartland, as salon owners can expect more personalized interactions, tailored solutions, and a deeper understanding of their unique needs, ultimately leading to a stronger and more rewarding business relationship.

3. Trusted by Manufacturing Partners - Access to Premium Brands

 Your clients expect nothing but the best, and you need a distributor that provides access to top-notch products. A distributor not trusted by manufacturing partners may not have access to premium brands and products, compromising the salon's ability to offer high-quality options to clients. It may also lead to potential challenges in obtaining authentic and reliable products, damaging the salon's reputation and client satisfaction. Heartland's strong relationships with leading tanning brands ensure your salon offers a diverse range of high-quality products that meet your client's expectations. With Heartland's trusted partnerships, you gain access to the finest tanning products, giving your salon a competitive edge and ensuring your clients receive top-tier services, leaving them satisfied and coming back for more. When a distributor like Heartland enjoys the trust and confidence of renowned manufacturers, it is a testament to their track record of professionalism, ethical practices, and excellent service. Salon owners can be assured that products sourced from Heartland are authentic, high-quality, and backed by the manufacturers' support and warranties. Trust from manufacturing partners also opens doors to exclusive deals, promotions, and early access to cutting-edge products, empowering salons to stay competitive, offer the latest trends, and deliver exceptional experiences to their valued clients.

4. Rewards Rebates - Showcasing Gratitude for Loyalty

Your clients expect you to provide the best results by maintaining your equipment. Without rewards rebates, you may not have a suitable way to afford the cost associated with equipment re-lamping, hindering your ability to build strong customer loyalty and repeat business, impacting revenue and growth opportunities. Replacing lamps can be a major undertaking, not to mention expense. Heartlands rewards program is there to help you provide quality experiences for your guests without breaking the bank, all for doing what you probably do already. This valuable cost-saving opportunity enhances profitability.  By reinvesting the rebate into purchasing lamps, the salon can maintain a well-equipped tanning area, ensuring a consistent and satisfying experience for their clients. Additionally, the cost savings can be redirected to other aspects of the salon's growth, such as marketing efforts, employee training, or upgrading facilities, ultimately contributing to the salon's overall success and financial well-being.

5. Same-Day Shipping - Keeping Your Clients Happy

 A client walks into your salon, looking for a specific tanning product, but you're running low on inventory. Partnering with a distributor that doesn't offer same-day shipping can lead to delays in receiving crucial products, affecting the salon's ability to meet client demands promptly. It may result in disappointed customers, lost sales, and reduced client satisfaction. With Heartland's same-day shipping, you can rest assured knowing you can promptly fulfill your client's needs, keeping them satisfied and coming back for more. Heartland's same-day shipping ensures you never miss a sales opportunity due to inventory shortages, allowing you to provide excellent customer service and retain client satisfaction.  This prompt service enhances customer satisfaction, as clients receive their desired products without unnecessary delays. Secondly, it enables the salon to handle unexpected spikes in demand or quickly replenish stock for popular items, avoiding potential revenue loss due to inventory shortages. Moreover, the convenience of same-day shipping allows the salon owner to efficiently manage their ordering process and focus on other aspects of their business, confident that their distributor is dedicated to providing excellent service and support. 

6. Industry Events - Networking and Access to Exclusive Deals

  Staying competitive in the tanning industry requires staying ahead of trends and accessing exclusive deals. Without access to educational and networking events, the salon misses opportunities to stay updated on industry trends, access exclusive deals, and build valuable professional connections. This could hinder their ability to stay competitive and offer innovative services. Heartland's investment in multiple industry events provides you with these networking opportunities and exclusive offers, enabling you to thrive and stay ahead of your competition. 

Educational events provide salons with the latest knowledge, trends, and techniques in the tanning industry, empowering them to offer cutting-edge services and stay ahead of competitors. Networking events enable salon owners to connect with fellow industry peers, manufacturers, and experts, fostering valuable relationships that can lead to collaborative partnerships and access to exclusive deals. Additionally, these events create a sense of community and support, allowing salon owners to share experiences, exchange ideas, and learn from one another. By attending these events, salons can enhance their expertise, elevate their business strategies, and be part of a dynamic network that drives continuous improvement and success.

7. Online Ordering - Convenience at Your Fingertips

 Running a bustling salon leaves you with limited time to manage orders. Not having access to online ordering may cause inconvenience and inefficiency in managing your inventory and placing orders. It may result in time-consuming processes, potential errors, and difficulties in staying organized.
