Interesting new SP strategy now emerging....over the last 3 days I've had four regulars reach out inquiring if I want to pre-book and pre-pay (in full) future dates in order to have my plans totally locked in once the virus scare dies down and demand for dates skyrockets. Interestingly, no discounts offered for pre-payment. Clearly, simply being their regular customer over the past four years or so no longer carries any value in the post-coronavirus era.
Kind of damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Pre-pay and risk getting screwed over when it comes time to do the date. (cancellation, no-show, etc.)
Don't pre-pay and risk being labelled an unsympathetic client who didn't care about them as people in tough times, and potentially lose opportunity for future bookings with them.
*note: supposedly, none of the four are currently seeing clients
