My friend has had her salon for maybe 6 years i think...quite early on she put a poster in her window advertising a special offer on facials. Apparently 2 older ladies looked at it and in big clear voices said 'oh look and offer they must be desperate' and since then shes never ever done special offers, in fact just concentrated on her beauty treatments and kept her prices medium/high for her area.....
....I'm thinking of doing the same as I think we are approaching our 2nd year and we did a pre paid pamper package as an experiment (an outside company sold packages for £55 on our behalf allowing new clients to try lots of mini treatments for free- and we didnt pay them or take any money it was just to try and 'win' them back) The pre paid pamper package was on for 6 months and people with no intention of coming back kept asking for an extension....erm...they have had the opportunity for 6 months and its now the busiest time of year!
Has anybody else 'banned' offers?....thinking of only keeping loyalty cards...
