You will become an authority on specific products and will be able to talk about them to your clients. Also, research the most common spa products in your area. You can do this by surveying existing spa product retailers, and asking them what is selling the most and the least.

Find a good distributor and become an agent. When you are an agent of a specific brand you can get discounts and promotion offers. Representing a specific brand can help you learn the business better because you'll have the support of the distributing company. Also, you will be more familiar with different types of spa products up front, and you will know firsthand which products your customers might prefer.

Decide what products you want to sell. There are many spa products on the market. Don't try to sell all of them from the start; becoming an expert on all of them is very difficult. Look at various items within a specific niche. Aromatherapy products like colognes, liquids, shower and bubble soaps are a good area in which to specialize.. Also, look at different types of moisturizers. Specialize in a area that matches your personal lifestyle and interests. For example, if you love taking bubble baths, you'll probably make a successful bubble-bath soap salesperson. When you specialize in an area you love you can genuinely answer all the questions your clients might ask. This can help you build a base of customers who deal exclusively with you.

Create a survey to determine what additional products your costumers would like. Analyze the competition and compare its range of services to what you are currently offering.
