How Does It Work
Heres a link to a video page on the TI site that gives a good overview of what’s included in each package and demonstrations on the equipment.
Business or Franchise?
Tat is an independent business opportunity. There are some recurring fees if you become part of their MVP program which allows you to purchase suppliers directly from Tat at discounted rates.
How Much Does It Cost
The Power Systems range in cost from $2497 to $4497. Kits costs $247-$897. Sunless tanning systems run $249.95- $649.95. The MVP Program Membership cost $297, but it is included with purchase of any of the Power Systems. The renewal cost is $147 per year, which is waived if you spend $100 or more in the TAT Store.
WHAT OTHERS SAY
This section is where I pull together a sample of opinions from people that have posted their experience and knowledge of the company. I try to be fair and balanced, but I give you what I find.
I checked all of my usual sources for independent information on a company and I couldn’t find anything on TAT International. Now that can be viewed in 2 ways, first if there was any scammy type behavior related to this company more than likely it would’ve shown up in my research. The other way to look at it is that the company might be small enough to escape any real criticism. Which way do I look at it? Check the ‘Random Observations’ section for a my personal thoughts.
In the absence of any independent critiques, we are left with what TAT can provide us with. Here is a link to their
Press page which has links to articles written about the company. And here’s a link to an interview with CEO Kirk Knapp posted on
Bizymoms.com.
I do have a couple of interview requests with tattoo artists that say they use TAT’s system. Hopefully, if any of those requests are granted they will be as informative as
my interviews with Xocia distributors.
Better Business Bureau
TAT International LLC is an BBB accredited business with an A+ rating. Even with that there are complains, 5 in the last 36 months. The complains were regarding repair issues, customer service, and refund/exchange issues. You can
read the full report here.
Random Observations
Up to this point I have kept my personal opinions and observations to myself. This section is where I give you some of my thoughts. They are random and might not be relevant to you, but they just might make you stop and go, Hmm?
- The website is very informative with lots of videos that explain the services well.
- I have mixed feelings about the MVP Master program. Is it coaching program or a network marketing pitch? If you watch the video it all sounds good, but $97 per person and a max. of 100 seems like a low price tag for what they’re offering.
- I find it interesting that they are not just selling products, they are selling self improvement
- My "Scammy" sense didn’t got off with this company. I believe that if the company were in engaged in any questionable practices that would be out there for people to find.
- I was surprised by how much the packages cost. But you do get a lot of material in each package. I like that it’s easy to determine what the packages cost.

When I first started it was very hard to make money in the winter. Now that I have been doing airbrush tattoos since 1998 I have a huge database of clients. With airbrush tattoos you need to look for work indoors when it is winter time. Their are Octoberfest, X-mas parties, New Year Eve parties, conventions, company venues only to name a few.
