At least monthly I will have a text message conversation that goes something like this:
Message: Are you available tomorrow?
Me: No, but I'm available plenty of other times, you can look at my schedule and book in advance.
Message: I'm only available tomorrow.
Me: Sorry, I'm booked. Plan more in advance next time.
Message: If you get a cancellation let me know.
At this point I don't know what to say.
Never say never, the booked person might just cancel right then and it all works out.
Cancelling a Sensual Massage
What I want to tell the person behind the message is that doesn't often happen. Sometimes people cancel just the day before, but not often.
Occasionally people cancel on the same day, but that's really rare.
As for people just not showing up? Well, that's all most as rare as hens' teeth.
People do cancel. Lot's of people cancel and often. I have a simple online system so people can easily book and reschedule and cancel. Butt they normally do all those things way in advance.
Anyway, if someone does cancel the following morning - on the day of their appointment - should I really message a person who contact me the day before? That doesn't make sense to me.
Surely that person has already made other arrangements - I think this because the person has told me they have such limited free time that they only had one day to see me and they were unable to make any other date in the future. If they really want to see me then they would have looked at my schedule and made an appointment.
I also want to tell them that I am not scrabbling around trying to fill my diary. If a client cancels, I already have plenty of things to fill my time, so it isn't a problem for me.
That's all just about how I work - in my one person part-time operation. This isn't true for other businesses of course.
