Now I have changed my phone message to advertise Minx telling them appts are very limited! Says so on my new minx site too! When I'm going to be off on a day that I'm normally wkin I make sure the reception tells them I am booked that day....same goes for when I take off early or longer at lunch. Point is make them think you are busy all the time. If I could stress one important thang.....walk every client to the book and rebook them. If you need.to intice them to get into the habbit then .offer a discount for rebooking. This is a huge reason why I am slammed in jan and many are standin round. I gave discounts $5 off to only the ones who say they can never....on the flip side.....the clients in need of a lot of callus "smoothing" .....has to come back in a certain time or I charge and xtra $5! Hope I didn't get to off topic! Peace yall On 1/26/09, Diana Bonn <[email protected]> wrote: > > Melody reminded me of something.
