Take it on the chin approach I would suspect.. like me
BORED SO RAMBLE TIME
Unlike weddings where your not going to get repeat bookings form the same couple (much haha) My world is all about repeats and dealing with the same poeple or the same leagues.. If theres a cancelation I will lose out but it wont be anyones fault or on a whim.. there will be a good reason and they will wat me another time... word of mouth is everyhting when your workign in a X,Y catchment area and charging people for work not done wouldnt help
I dont do any advertising other than post on FB if I have a slot available.. and my diary is full enough
and I have every sunday to fill with junior football and lots of stuff to add from returning customers who havent given me dates yet... my point being... keep them happy..if any of them cancel then i take it on the chin
My Diary so far all paid for jobs
