I had an idea planted in my head from a client that has tickled my brain since. What if I offered a kind of membership program?
The thought being that a client can pay a monthly amount at some level to get services at a discount, plus other perks. I am really thinking that this could be beneficial for both myself and my clients.
Initially, I am thinking of a 4 tier system that each tier gives different benefits and services each month. I have also thought of adding a supplementary system that is a monthly payment that accumulates for bigger services. Instead of paying a large amount at the time of service, you can pay into a monthly amount that would add up to the cost of the service. Creating certainty that you, the client, can afford your services easier and on a preferred scheduling. Also, there will be bonuses and rewards associated with your membership.
I think what appeals to me most, is making things predictable for everyone. Knowing exactly how much you, my client, will be paying per month can help with your budgeting. For me, I can be more assured that I will have a steady income each month, along with steady business throughout the entirety of the month. I feel this to be a win-win for everyone.
I am going to continue crafting this into a reality and, when it is ready, I will unveil the whole membership program to the entirety of my clientele.
