My JCTA

Thursday, May 18th, 2017

When Tan FX first entered the indoor tanning market in Winnipeg, Manitoba in October of 2000, it wasn’t just a business for us. We believed strongly in clients being educated in responsible sunning both indoors and outdoors.

At the time, we weren’t fully versed on what had been happening behind the scenes with any type of regulations on indoor tanning or even that there already was a little grassroots organization here in Manitoba that had been actively working with government arms to be proactive in regulating the industry. This organization was working to make sure that responsible salon operators were in place using proper employee training methods and implementing streamlined cleanliness standards. In 2006, we are proud to say that we assisted in funding with other industry leaders the birthing of the Joint Canadian Tanning Association, and we remain loyal members to this day.

The JCTA has worked on our behalf for years to create government regulations and guidelines in every province that we are a part of. We personally benefit from the hard work of the JCTA monthly in many areas that assist our business every day such as marketing, social media, insurance and of course the guideline on professional standards which are a pillar and the backbone of the Tan FX model as it is today. Members can be guaranteed savings in all kinds of areas, and we are recognized everyday via their website as a JCTA accredited salon of which clients have come to know, recognize and trust when choosing their UV tanning provider.

The JCTA has worked tirelessly behind the scenes lobbying governments in every province in Canada, stopping negative anti tanning campaigns and is a silent warrior that has skillfully protected and rallied for the Indoor Tanning Industry at large. I often reflect on my membership with the Joint Canadian Tanning Association as something that my business simply can’t be without. The JCTA always tailors payment structure to work with the cash flow of my business and has for us handled numerous requests for interviews when negative press was upon us that is simply invaluable.

Every UV tanning provider in Canada should see the value of being part of an organization that supports our industry, has a strong relationship with government and works everyday to make sure that our businesses can be effective providers of our service, strong advocates of a responsible message and above all puts our membership dollars to work for us.
