PR Case Study: $1 Billion in Media Coverage for Mystic Tan
Situation Overview
Mystic Tan is the nation’s leading UV-free spray-on tanning booth, creating an even, natural-looking, tan in less than a minute. Mystic Tan launched in 1999 and was met with great success and acceptance among tanning salon owners.
