Frequently Asked Questions
How is the Retail Gap Calculator worked out?
It compares your monthly retail revenue against your monthly treatment revenue, then measures that percentage against the 15-25% range top-performing spas achieve, based on Zenoti’s 2025/2026 Beauty and Wellness Benchmark Report. It’s a straightforward percentage comparison, not a complex model.
What counts as retail revenue for this calculator?
Any product a guest buys at the spa, whether that’s an add-on at the till or a recommendation made during treatment. If your point-of-sale system separates retail from treatment revenue, that figure is what to use here.
Is the 15-25% benchmark realistic for every spa?
It’s realistic as a target, not a guarantee. The range comes from spas where retail is genuinely built into the treatment, brand mechanism, therapist training and incentive structure all lined up. A spa without those in place is unlikely to hit it purely by aiming for the number.
Is the Retail Gap Calculator free to use?
Yes, it’s a free tool, no sign-up or contact details required to see your result. If you’d like to talk through what the number means for your spa specifically, our team is happy to do that separately.
