Lynne you are an angel on earth and anyone who has got to know me knows how much I love angels.
I have decided to just do the manicure on Monday though and I'm ok once I get going. I seem to have lost my confidence and I think part of that is lack of clients.
I do need to be more assertive and say no when I can't do an appointment. I've already contacted inland revenue to stop my NI payments. But we now pay 3 months in arrears so I'm still paying until dec. I suppose I can just contact them and say I'm working again.
I did everything correctly from day one and ran the business professionally. I need some confidence. I've done short courses for my treatments but started beauty therapy levels 1,2 and 3 for the theory side of things. I passed level 1 with distinction and have nearly finished level 2.
I love shellac and my clients loved it but none of them are what I would call real regulars. Some come monthly but trying to get them to come every 2 weeks is a headache. I had one client who bought her own stuff off eBay so she could do it herself and save money. It wasn't shellac I hasten to add.
My room is clean and professional and so am I but my confidence has really been knocked. And I need money to pay bills. I loved my business name and stationery so wouldn't want to change that.
Do any other home salon owners ever feel lonely with no one to refer things too?
