A full-time stylist might need around 30 clients a week to be properly busy.
If they are new, they will not keep every new client they see.
So if you are only relying on brand new clients to fill their column, it can take months — sometimes over a year — to get them properly busy.
That is expensive.
The better way is to use a mix of:
• New clients
• Returning clients
• Overdue clients
• Clients who already know, like and trust your salon
That is how you fill gaps faster.
That is how you support your team.
That is how you protect profit.
