9. Asking if I do charity work for broke college students.
10. While flattering, receiving messages just because they want to tell me I'm beautiful, without having any intention of ever booking with me. Why is this such an issue? I am prompt about repying and responding to appointment requests, reference checks, and screening tasks. I could be at the grocery store with family, but when I get a message, I stop what I am doing to check it. I could also be driving, and I will pull over to respond if needed.
11. Asking if I offer quickie sessions.
12. Contacting me the moment they are finished readng a review on me, then trying to schedule immediately. Once I start screening, they have second thoughts because they didn't take the time to do their research on my rates, requirements, and screening procedures.
13. Trying to set up a new client appointment at 10pm at night and wanting to meet within the next couple of hours. That's not enough time for screening.
14. The words "hopefully, maybe, some day, some time, one day, eventually." I don't believe in daydreaming about a future session; I believe in careful planning and execution. Set a day and time, and follow through.
15. Indefinite start times..."Hey babe, call me when you're free and we'll see if we can get together.
