Hey everyone,
I had an idea today that I wanted to get your opinions on. I thought for my next spa and current customers, I would start a foot-care club. Since we do a lot with feet at our spas, I thought it would be cool to offer and incentive to take better care of our feet by offering a special discount for foot-care members.
This is what I was thinking: Once a client purchases a foot cream of their choice (margarita, herbal serenity, save your sole) at regular price, they can then purchase one foot cream per month at a discounted amount which I haven't figured out yet. The catch is that they have to purchase one per month or they lose their discount and have to start over again.
Would this be okay to do, and any other opinions on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to add any ideas, or use this idea for your own spas. It would also work with body lotion, or any of our other product lines. I just thought that it would be a way to gain repeat customers, and I think people overlook their feet way too often, including myself!!smileys/smiley9.gif
I am really looking forward to hearing your valuable thoughts on this, thanks in advance!!smileys/smiley1.gif

Lisa,
You will have to forgive me because I really don't remember how some in my unit ran their frequent client card. I know it was based on sales. On the card was numbers to be punched or marked off. After so much in sales, the client could get a half price item or free item.
You can make up whatever amounts you want, but make it attainable for your clients to achieve. Makes it fun for them and they get to pick whatever product they like the best! Give it a deadline so they have to complete the card by that date or they can't get the prize. The promotion starts the day of the party or when they place an order with you. I have heard that some women will fill up the card at one time to get the free product.
It is the kind of promotion you see in a sandwich shop or even in a hair salon.
I will see if my Director has any forms or ideas about that promotion. Will let you know if I get any new info on that!
