Tip #1: Online booking system
From my own experience running a spa, I can tell you the first action you can take to streamline your operation is to implement an online booking system. Think about the cumulative time spent booking clients. Then, think about what you could do with that time once it’s free. Your customers will also thank you for implementing anytime, anywhere non-contact booking.
Tip #2: Auto-replies for your emails
The second action you can take is one that is often forgotten: auto-replies. Setting up auto-replies for your emails has several benefits apart from saving you time every day. Not only does it set expectations for the client, but it also takes some of the pressure off you to immediately reply. There is added peace of mind for the client when they receive that auto-reply that their message has been received and will be handled.
Tip #3: Create templates for everything
The final action you can take is to create templates. Create basic, easily edited templates for anything that would have the same response. For example, any onboarding messages sent to clients, training procedures for new staff, appointment confirmations, etc. This will allow you to easily and quickly send off the documents you need without investing valuable time re-writing them every time.
Having easily understandable, detailed standard operating procedures will lead to an easier delegation in your business and greater consistency across the board. It’s never too late to start implementing change and freeing up your time.
