Free session promotion

[Cochise]

Okay, now that I've got your attention.
Now we've all spent hundred and even thousands of $ into this hobby.
I'm sure the owners of these MP's are making a tidy sum. It would be nice to see them give back to those who support them.

Sure there are programs where you get a free session after 10 visits.
But what about a random free session.

It would be great if say you pop into a MP one evening. The owner/receptionist says "congratulations, you're our lucky winner of a free basic with any girl you wish!" This would be randomly done perhaps every fifth customer each hour on one given night.

I don't think this would necessarily bring in a lot more business but it certainly would make one think about which MP to go to.
How about it MP owners?
Whadya all think? Too far fetched?

We tell them that this policy must exist or all hobbyists will boycott. Then we park limo with sexy blonde inside and free sex sign on windows.

Not sure how this could be applied in MPs. (I may post this as a new thread in SC section.) This thread triggered memmories of Ottawa area SCs. There what they do once every night is have a 'showcase'. A showcase is where the DJ calls up ALL the girls on stage at once. He introduces them by name and they all dance around for maybe 1/2 song together, undressing each other... whatever. Then when they come down from the stage each dancer must choose one customer to give one free table dance. Even if you are not choosen by a dancer for a free one... it's really some site to see... 20-30 dancers all doing table dances all over the club at the same time.

But I suspect many operators don't have the marketing savvy to realize the value of a loyalty program.

IMO... it's a good way to gain an extra advantage when all other things are relatively equal. I mean, which spa would you prefer to go to... one that actively seeks your repeat business and fosters goodwill, or one that could care less about you as a customer?

To me, it's a no-brainer. Of course having such incentive to repeat is meaningless if the service and care are not consistently worthwhile.

There's a spa in Pickering that did this (Hwy2 and Brock). Don't know if they still do. Service was never all that great, IMO. The thing I didn't like is they made you carry a card with you and get it stamped each time. A random draw would certainly eliminate that .

Heck, why not just recognize good customers and randomly give them a freebie? That would make me an advocate, not just a repeat customer.

Any spa owners listening?

The customer may not always be right... but we are fundamental to the success of your spa. Okay, end of lesson.

Well spoken J.J (Old Friend)

There is a saying in the customer service industry. Customer service is nothing; Customer loyality is everything.

Moreover, if you want to be successfull, you have to establish plans to keep customers loyal.

I remember a while back one of my favorite MPA's mentioned that I owed her $20 from a previous visit. I remember the session , I paid her the standard fee for NR and didn't give her an extra $20(tip) because I was running short that day. She was even giving me a pissy attitude. Long story short, I never returned.

J.J., you're right about most lacking marketing savvy. They simply put out a sign by the road or an ad in Now.

Actually massageplanet.net, is probably their best marketing - word of mouth. And the majority of them don't even buy ad space. It's only through the reviews of hobbyists that some of these MP's even get recognition (I mean where was Illetmos until someone discovered Rebecca?).

It doesn't take much to open up a run down MP. So I imagine the return is quite good for the owner. Especially since the girls do all the work.
(I realize high end MP's require $ to maintain and upkeep).

We've all cried about poor service from the girls...I just thought it was about time we got some better respect and rewards from the owners.

Unfortunately, we can't do much about it because we're just too damn horny all the time.

Utopia has some promotion program going on. After a number of visites you get a coupon.

Shira's used to have a card you got stamped after each visit. Ten visits and you get one free (door fee). Got a few of those.

I believe that "Elite Retreat" on the Queensway use to have the same program, (its been awhile since I've been in Toronto so I don't know if the program still exists).

After 6 visits you received the benefit of a free door fee. You also had your choice of attendant.

I've always enjoyed myself here and will return soon.
