Objection #1 : You cannot provide deposits Fresha can?

• How to handle: We are aware of this and the deposit feature is being developed as we speak & will have this very soon 

• However, we do have prepayment on our software allowing clients to pay for the full treatment before even arriving at the salon

Objection #2 My client list is already built in my software which has taken me a lot of time to build not worth the hassle?

• How to handle: You can download your client list in a few simple steps from your current software and we can upload your client list to our software in a matter of seconds

• Hence You will not be losing any of your clients - what will be more of a hassle is realising later on down the line your software is not working for you as you are with the wrong provider 

❓Questions to expose Competitor's Weaknesses

How frequently are you receiving your no-show/cancellations money due to no funds being on the client's card?

• We offer a pre-payment option for all salons/barber shops we work with meaning you are getting your money back - think about how much money you are not making right now with your current software - your time is your money & talent

How are Fresha helping your business filling in empty slots in your quiet times ?

• Our software provides you with the option to do marketing flash promotions in your quiet times offering discounts ensuring your filling your empty slots - We can provide your business  access to the biggest digital Hair & Beauty high street booking platform in the industry

I noticed you don't have a Website -why was this not set up for you when you joined with Fresha ? 

• We provide your business with a free website with our software & will put a book now button on there for clients  to book directly from your website with you - this is another way we can provide you with new & repeat clients 

How are you managing your team members' time off /holidays on your current booking system/software ? 

• I understand its very time-consuming with Fresha  as you have to click day by day to book the time off - with our software it's just 1 click away to manage holidays & time off saving you valuable time 

It was announced by Fresha that from the 15th of November it will charge 20p for all your clients who confirm an appointment when booking with a card on-top of the 1.40% processing fee. How are you managing this? 

• Our software does not charge your clients to confirm appointments when booking by card - as soon as an appointment is booked in your digital diary an automatic confirmation email & text message gets sent to the client & 24hrs before the appointment they receive an appointment reminder by email & text message - which also reduces your no shows & cancellations

What training or ongoing support is Fresha providing your business to ensure your business is set up for success? 

• We provide  all our partner's dedicated training to ensure they are set up correctly  providing your business with 6 new ways for clients to book appointments with your business all you need to do is use our software by inputting your appointments in your digital diary - once the system recognises there are 20 appointments in your diary you will then have access to online bookings via the biggest digital Hair & Beauty highstreet in the industry

How do you know what fees you pay monthly? How often do you check?

How many appointments do you get weekly? How many of those get reminders?

How do you fill last-minute slots?
