1st paying client

[kellymac]

Iv been practicing constantly, so felt ready to put some leaflets out and got my 1st call yesterday! My 1st app is Friday, mini mani & pedi!!! Cant believe how nervous I feel. Iv been in Sales for 9 yrs and normally have tons of confidence:lol:

How long after training did you do your first client? When did you confidence grow?

sorry Kelly, been doing this 10 years now and still have pangs of doubt!!!

go in with the biggest smile you can muster, briefly introduce yourself and explain what YOU are going to do. You must control the situation.

Once you start setting your stuff out, your hands will stop shaking and take a few deep breaths.

have everything laid out ready and if you 'forget' what you are supposed to be doing, look at your products and equipment.

don't forget YOU ARE THE PROFESSIONAL, the customer ISN'T.

Ooh, good luck, let us know how it goes!

I feel pretty confident now, after nearly 5 years lol. But the first time I did a paying client (which was about a month after finishing training), I was so pre-occupied I crashed the car, went up the back of a Jaguar s6! (No injuries)

So I know how you feel hun, keep us posted!
