Opening offer

[vitality]

Hi geeks!

What special offers worked well and got good response from new clients when you first started out? Anything different than the usual recommend a friend, loyalty cards, student discount or free mini treatments?

I would just be doing nails and I don't mind doing a loss leader if it attracts new clients. I don't want to sound desperate or cheap!

p.s. My target market is dual earners, young employed women and older teenagers

thanks in advance x x

I have found the above links to threads on here that might help you.

If it is just nails you are doing how about "% off your infils when you have a full set" that way you are trying to encourage repeat new clients.

Apart from the offers you listed I am not sure what else there is, how about BOGOF?

Hope that helps

That is a very good offer where abouts in Essex are you - I might treat myself? You got a website?
