Title: Last min rush
Post by: maxcarpets on December 13, 2007, 07:49:18 am

Hows it going all, have been manic, phones are slowing down now, still have a few spaces next week ( I hope they will fill ) Jan looks good already. Just could do with filling the last few spaces, what do you think is there many last min punters out there still?

Cheers!

Justin

Hi Doug

no such rush down here. If you want to farm any out I'll sub em and sort you out a slice. Mrs has expensive tastes for pressies so need to get earning and I don't mind the drive up your way.

I always keep a few days free next week for regular customers.  One of those days went today so two left.  Lost one today as couldnt fit it in so hate that but its her fault for not booking earlier.:o

Had to resort to changing answerphone message to say that next appointment is 10th January. Returned 5 calls in last 2 days and gone through all the chat , only to be told they want it this week/weekend/day  :o
Regulars are not surprised at the wait but still booking for new year, rather than take the alternative numbers i may offer  8)

Well my mini boom is over. Had a call yesterday from a leaflet. Chap she had booked said he couldn't do it. I rushed round prepared to burst into action only to be told I was more expensive. ::)

Wanted to say well I turn up, but bit me tongue.
