No homework? No classes! - Ghosting clients and more

http://chiaralanguagefreak.com/2023/11/20/no-homework-no-class/

📚 Some months ago, a girl decided to buy a 4-week package with me, including weekly classes and homework. She did everything autonomously through my website, without a discovery call or trial. Cool!

🤓 We had our first class, and I emphasized the importance of doing homework between sessions to see results. It’s all clearly stated on my page above the “BUY” button. She reassured me she’d do everything, and I was optimistic.

⏳ Days passed, and I reached out, asking for her work. She promised, but nothing came. I had to cancel the next lesson until she sent me something, explaining it’s useless otherwise.

✉️ After more waiting, she finally sent written work, but no voice messages, which are crucial to my method. She struggles with speaking, even after 8 years in Italy, affecting her job prospects.

💸 I’m losing money but billing anyway felt wrong.

📈 I’ve raised my prices, still figuring out how to balance effectiveness and not losing out.

Tune in to hear how I navigate this challenge!
