Thank you Skinty and FP

The list looks long, but it's little bits eg case study and other laptop things can be done on the same day. BW learning i can only do 9 modules, the other 2 are when I'm practicing on clients. Business acc I can do off my phone etc.

I've tweaked my list and pushed a few items into next month / next payday. Ticked a few things off too.

No bookings today and therefore cleaned 3rd home, chilled, waxed my legs and measured up for the unit; I'll be using loyalty points to cover most of the price.

I had a sleep when I got home, after a light lunch of Italian bread with French butter; hubs went to the city for tasty supplies while I was out.

Continuing with happy news, I passed my hot Wax course today, all the latest examples I submitted were great 🎉

I've got a masterclass in applying false nails to do, hot stones and reflexology to start; written in the order I'll be doing them.
- I've also got a spa course with my facial co, which will compliment some of what I offer; I'll chip away at that.

While I've having a busy year, aspects will ease off eg the amount of new training, next year will be more of a top up / gain more knowledge in my treatments.

All sounding good but very busy. As you say, it will start to calm down soon.
A huge well done.

Thank you DIA 

I'm hoping a few more months and I can focus on building up clients, I'll also do some extra hours at 3rd home over winter as I won't be at 2nd home as much.

I was at 2nd home all day, did a load of weeding and cleared more brambles. Felt like I'd got somewhere with it.

I've just ticked a few more things off my list, behind on others, and will see what I can slip in tomorrow eg do and submit case study, tinting and a couple of BW modules.

Been resting with my feet up for a few hours and looking forward to bed 🤭

All sounding really positive 😃
Just a thought on those packages you're going to offer. If you have a client in could you make it known that if you have time in your diary on the day you're able to 'upsell' there and then to a package if they decide they want one last minute. I know what I'm like if I go for one treatment I think why didn't I book in for x y or z too... especially if there was a special deal to be had and ability to do it if they had space there and then I think I'd do it more often.

Hope you get some rest in between all those jobs you sound super busy ♥️

Well done on your many achievements. Hope you get some rest too.

Thank you DFW321 and SH

"Up selling" it just happens as I'm used to spotting things when doing treatments, discuss it, say what I'm able to offer, being naturally passionate about what I do the client jumps at the opportunity. I'll slip in a 'taster' or try before you buy, even doing a "luxury" for the price of a "regular" as I block book time.
- It's hard for the client after that not to want the "luxury" during future bookings as they've seen how good the results are.

Same with retailing products, ask how their getting on, suggest adding a further item to their routine and to think about it; they buy on the spot!

It's not hard sell I do as I don't like having it done to me.

I've added a few things to my list, altered dates on others and am halfway through writing the case study.

I am having rest still have dreadful fatigue from my bug 😊

Hope the fatigue passes soon. Do you have the bank holiday weekend off?

DFW321 It's the start and end of the week I don't do my day job, usually I'm at 2nd home on Mon's.
- wish I could afford to drop 90 more minutes a week, but it's not viable yet.

As I had no bookings I took the day off, proceeded to pop to 2nd home to harvest a few things, then did weeding and harvesting at home; also slotted in pickling of cucamelons (very cute small cucumbers), I'll be pickling normal cucumbers when I get up and making an okra, tom and lentil soup.

I need to do a final read of my case study before submitting it. Thought about looking at it now but the tutor would probably be very worried having an email off me this time of night!

Finally figured out what I need for my e-file course, I'll order those in the morning and get a free e-pedi course.

That will bring me up to having body wrap to finish, hot stones, reflexology, nail tips, e-file and e-pedi courses to start; logging it here to keep track 😶
- hope I don't spot anything else, although I don't think there's anything else I want to do this year.

Run out of one of my meds, weather is turning colder too which isn't helping.

Totally overtired.
