I try to remember to ask if they'd like to schedule 6 months or one year from now. Then I "pencil them in" (I set up my system to show it as "Unconfirmed") for 26 or 52 weeks out. About a week before the pencil-in date, I call them to set a firm date/time. Works well for me. Oh yeah, no discount (seen the price of GAS lately?? <g>)<br> <br>Paul Bruesch<br>Stillwater, MN<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 9:45 PM, Matthew Todd <<a href="mailto:toddpianoworks@att.net">toddpianoworks@att.net</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div>Just curious as to how many of you try and schedule the next tuning appointment at your clients home before you leave?  Does that go well?</div> <div> </div> <div>I am thinking about giving my clients two options.  They can choose schedule their next appointment there, and I'll send 'em a reminder card a month before, or if they don't want to schedule right then, I'll still send 'em a reminder a month before, then call when their due date rolls around.  I have been thinking about giving them a discount (maybe 5 bucks) if they schedule for their next appointment.</div> <div> </div> <div>Just curious.</div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks in advance for the input,</div> <div>Matthew</div></blockquote></div><br>
