Cheap as chips will never work. You'll work your arse off for very little money, and if you do base yourself on price the only way is down.
Thats edsactly what I mean, everyone in my area is so cheap, the cannot be making any money at all! They are working and cant even be covering cost per treatment very well!Cheap as chips will never work.

Thanx for that! I have a net mums set up, but dont have anything as of yet.. iv got a 20% discount on at the moment!I found that doing school fetes and having a table to promote what u do helped me alot to get started and doing a really good offer on net mums for a set time got lots of clients in,once they can see what u can do they will want to stay x

I disagree with this comment, it is far too general. I started making profit after 2 months whilst reinvesting in new services and products and have been busy from day dot. What is this based on?
To the OP it's a very competitive market, do your research, find niches and implement plans which will work for your area.
Yes.Yeah, when i looked at my area, it was between £8-25 so I went with the middle!
I charge £10 for removal and £25 for removal and reapplication!
Do you think this is too cheap?
Haha! I just didnt want to be too expensive with being mobile and people in my area being so cheap!Yes.
There is Lidl, and there is Waitrose, and then there is Fortnum and Mason.
Which one are you?
Thankyou lovely!hiya hun
don't lose faith. i started my mobile business and for a lont time i heard nothing like you friends and family wanted things for free and the only time i would offer it is if i wanted to to advertise if i knew they worked somewhere where their hands were always on show etc. it was on my terms. buteven then some of them (unless i got something in return) i charged materials cost.
try all the promotional offers every one has said but a good website (personally recommend salon alchemy Ruth is a ledgend!!) and a facebook page helped ( have a look at mine if it helps)
and if you need to bounce ideas or just feel like youre getting no where just pm me!
i know it brings you down when you dont get anything or even worse you get an enquiry and it gets your hopes up but then it doesnt become a job. just hang in there. i felt like giving up sometimes an sticking to my day job but ive got regulars now and new ones calling too.
it will happen i promise xxxx
Last week?!
It takes 2 years to build a business and 5 to build a name. I'm afraid it won't happen overnight.
