FOR HAIR SALONS

Prepaid appointments for hair salons

A colour client is on a six-week clock whether or not they rebook. Sell the next five appointments up front and the clock becomes yours rather than theirs.

Example figures, not research — put your own in the calculator below. What matters is the shape: a block priced a little under the sum of its parts, paid for on day one.

The rebooking conversation, already had

A client with four appointments left is booking a date, not deciding whether to come back. That is a much easier thing to ask at the desk while you are taking payment.

Regrowth does not wait

Colour has a deadline built into it. A client who drifts to seven or eight weeks often ends up somewhere else because you had no slot — a block sold in advance means the slot was reserved before the drift started.

Higher ticket, so the block is worth more

At salon prices a five-appointment block is real money in the business on day one. Which is also why you should treat it as work owed rather than a good month.

YOUR SIDE OF IT

One screen. Who is owed what.

Every client, every remaining appointment, every package you have sold. Search by name, phone number, pet or vehicle when there is no code to scan — for the client who turned up without their phone.

100 visits you have been paid for and not yet delivered. This is not profit until you do the work.

You give away 360 in discount against 3,000 at single-visit prices. The gain is the cash arriving first, and the visits that would otherwise not have been booked.
