Did it live up to your expectations ?
So this was my 2nd Christmas in my salon.
I doubled on last year. But still wasn't full stretch. Didn't open extra very much. Or stay late particularly. Roll on Christmas 2016.
That means you did way better this year then lol!I did the same this December as last December, the only difference being I had 8 days off after an operation at the beginning of the month and s whole week off over Christmas whereas last year I worked most days.
Hi everyone and happy new year - first post of 2016 for me! It was my 3rd Xmas, 1st one had only been open 5 months so not much to write home about as still trying to build clientele, last year better but by no means what it should be. I just ran the reports to compare for this year and I was 47% up on last Decembers takings and my best months takings to date so really happy with that and feeling proud that the hard work of the last 2.5 years is beginning to pay off. Still lots of room for growth though as still a few empty slots each day and also seemed to have a record number of no shows and last minute cancellations this December which is really unusual for me, 6 Xmas eve, (1 no show and 5 cancellations), all regular clients too, I was fuming but luckily got lots of last minute calls so was able to fill most slots but it's still not on especially as we were all geared up and thought we knew exactly who was in. will seriously consider taking deposits for Xmas and NYE next year.
This week is looking rubbish although I had no bookings today and yet it ended up being a good day for walk ins and also got a deposit paid for a pamper party in Feb so you never can tell!
Sending positive vibes to everyone for 2016! [emoji171][emoji92][emoji93]
