I like this one!

I thought I would bring back this thread because there are some good ideas in it.

why didnt I see this thread the other day when I was asking about exactly what kathe is doing!

Some thoughts to add, I know my local coffee shop does this, (punch card) but they keep the cards there in a little box so no cheating, plus you can also do this wish stampers instead of a hole punch.

Sept is free upgrade month.....(never let your premium beds be empty)...."once they see the difference..they are sold". This works extremely well for salons with good HP beds, because once a base bed or VHR customer tries the HP tan they are "sold" and then you can offer to upgrade their package/(or EFT) to HP.
I like this one! I've noticed alot more lp use than HP lately (bottom feeders who won't even try the Hp because of the cost, regardless how you explain it to them)

Kathe, Are you still doing the lotion punch card? If so how is it working out for you? I implemented Din's trick this month, I am hoping it works out!

As a variation on Din's trick since I do points not sessions, is to offer one point per dollar spent - so a $90 lotion adds 90 points to their package. I normally offer it only when someone buys a points plan but occasionally I'll throw it out there to get the "I don't use lotion" people. They see something for free and go for it. I saw it here awhile back and tried it - it works! I'm going to look at the monthly idea too, looks good.

It's in the industry Pro's forum. You need to be an owner and have atleast 50 posts to gain entry. Once you hit 50, read the pro's forum notes and it will tell you how to get access.
