No show for interview??!!

[Polkaroo]

Same thing happened to me, twice in one month! I was very disappointed and PO'd. I also sent them an email with no reply. Because of all the crazy people out there, this was an eye opener for me. So now I do not give my phone number, address or appointment time until I speak to the person over the phone directly. Since I started doing this it hasn't happened. Every time I get an email asking to schedule a visit, I reply with general information (hours, fees) and thank them for contacting me. I then say that if they are interested we can schedule a phone call to discuss their needs and my services. I ask them for their phone number and schedule a visit after I've spoken to them. Sometimes they don't reply. I feel much more comfortable since I've started doing this and I haven't had a 'no show' since!
