Q: What’s your favorite part of the work you do? I absolutely love seeing our clients come in each day, and in the different seasons. This does not feel like a job for Brian and I. We enjoy watching our employees start goals in life, like college, going back to school to pursue their dreams.

Q: What role do you envision your business playing in the community? Continue to offer the best UV tanning, spray tanning, red light and blue light therapy needs. We will continue to support our community and the surrounding areas.

Q: What does winning Top Cap mean to you? This goes to show that our clients truly enjoy and love coming into Turbo Tan. We do our best to give back to Concord and surrounding areas.

Q: What’s something people might not know about you or your business? From Concordโ€™s premier Red Light Therapy for anti-aging, recovery & skin rejuvenation to Blue Light Therapy for clearer, healthier skin, weโ€™re here to help you look and feel your best. Our Poly machine is one of few FDA-cleared devices in the industry.

Q: Anything else to share? We took over the business in April of 2022. Dana Pierce, the previous owner, has been the backbone of Turbo Tan for 21 years. He had mentored us through the last few years and has become a close friend. This Top Award also goes to Dana Pierce.
