Hello! I’m newly qualified...& looking for some advice before giving up!
I qualified with CND L&P and Shellac in Sept. I’ve been officially set up in a salon since 1st October so not very long however...I’m not very busy at all all my clients I’ve had have been happy apart from 1 or 2 who came back to say their shellac had ‘popped off’ I offered them complimentary free treatment & have them both as regulars now.
My problem is this week i have 5 appointments the whole week WED-SAT. I have tried everything I could think of to drum up business (leafleting, running introductory offers, some continuing offers, free nail art, Christmas hamper raffle for every client booked in December & so on...) I just can’t seem to busy up and find most people only book if it’s a ridiculously cheap deal..
So my question is I suppose how long did it take you all to ‘busy up’ a bit?! Seriously concerned at the lack of appointments I have I also have about 8-10 people nearby offering ‘shellac’ I have since seen from walking past the windows a few of them are using Bluesky? But have a sign in the window claiming it’s shellac for £12 I’m priced at £23 is this too expensive?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Xx
