If you dream of doing business in Bali by starting your own spa business, now may be the perfect time to do so. In 2018, there were more than 6.5 million foreign visitors flocking to Bali, making tourism industry grow at an exponential rate, particularly in accommodations, fitness and wellness industries.

While running a successful spa business in Bali is not as simple as it may sound, it can be extremely rewarding in terms of its future prospects. According to the Negative Investment List (NIL), a spa business is not listed in this regulation and thus, foreigners can have as much as 100% ownership of a spa with PT PMA in Bali.

Global Wellness Institute has also reported that there are now 21,595 spas in 210 countries all over the world, including Indonesia. The earning is even more shocking: approximately US$77.6 billion a year. This growth of spa business has shown no sign of ceasing due to the increasing health awareness.

Before you go ahead with the spa business setup in Bali, like any other businesses, you must consider the things written in this guide to have a smooth entrepreneurial sail!

Doing Business in Bali: What to Prepare for Your Spa Business

Get Your Space and Equipment Ready

Your spa environment must feel safe and comfortable for your customers. Always make sure that you meet the quality and safety regulations in Indonesia to ensure a flawless performance.

 

Here’s a checklist to get your spa facilities in order:

  • Test and make sure you have a functional music system
  • Validate your equipment and machines are working properly
  • Adequate installation of POS and inventory systems
  • The exit and fire safety equipment of your premise are visible, working and clearly marked
  • Ensure safe and functional electrical system
  • First-aid kits are available

Prepare a Marketing Strategy

A marketing strategy should already be in place before the first day of your spa operation. The strategy can include the following items:

  • Posts on social media to create anticipation before the opening
  • Flyers distribution
  • Local ads
  • Networking with local communities, organizations and clubs
  • Discounts and promotions on the first day or certain period to attract customers

Have Administrative Capacities

A spa setup has paperwork, licenses and mundane administrative tasks to deal with. These tasks are critical as they can actually be detrimental to your business if you fail to handle them properly.
