It's true Shannon that "conservative" clients aren't nearly as daring. Try having a disk with a few of the mixtures applied so they can see the "affect" of the colours. Choose lighter gliters, more irridescent so it's not too dramatic for them? Maybe offer them a discount to try it out? Also, you need to try tapping into a different market for the bling toes. Start up a promo maybe with a discount card? Hand them out to people you meet to get new blood into your salon. Offer a few ladies that work in busy offices, banks, grocery stores etc. a free set to help promote you. Once people see them out there, on the streets, your phone will start ringing!
