Tonight i am off to see a client who 3 months ago decided 4 weeks was fine for maintenance appointments, even though I strongly advised against it....
Now last time I saw her she bundled me out there door without making an appointment, so I thought she has my card and my price lists, and aftercare both all with my number on....but nothing just going into week 5 and I get a call on friday asking me Where were you last week?, i am confused, so I say sorry but we didnt book an appointment - "well I was sat all ready and wait for you" so i asked well I am sorry but there was no appointment booked and i was full that week, so I asked when she was available .....so we agree tonight...
:twisted: I couldnt understand so Dean made me get me diary out and she had obviously just assumed I would turn up 4 weeks on from her last appointment
I am so annoyed how dare she presume I would just turn up....
Then to make matters worse I was at her great nephews first birthday party on Saturday and to add insult to injury as I was leaving she shouts across the room, see you on Tuesday thats if you remember :evil: - I was so mad i wanted to shout back " well now you've booked an appointment of course I will" I didnt though..
I just walked over smiling and gave her one of my new fabulous business cards and said oh while I remember please have one of these - see you tuesday....
Well this is it no more messing me around - Like a plonker I have been letting her have rebalances at £18 for a 4 week period from now on its either £36 or 2 weeks tops or find another technician...but heres the hard part how do I tell her without sounding rude or bossy....
Any good straight to the point advise for this situation gladly received...thanks
PS new price list I am about to print contains 4 week rule...
