Question for the guys...

I'm trying to figure out the logistics of this. If we are just talking half a session fee, wouldn't you just ask them to do you a favor and come over for a visit and maybe even throw in something extra the next time?

If it is a true true emergency are you asking them to send you money without seeing them? I think that is a little nervy, to be honest. That's a question I'd ask a friend or family member or someone...

Ok, so I haven't seen this provider as frequent as you said (3 times per month), but I don't hobby super often, and I have seen this provider 2-3 times total. She asked for more than usual cause her rent was due. I obliged. She gave me that much off of our next session. Seemed pretty cut and dry to me haha

So I assume OP realizes that what she was suggesting was not a good idea. So lets provider her(or her friend) a better solution. So for such a loan, it would need to be financially advantageous for the hobbiest, not the provider. So my suggestion would be to offer this regular who sounds like he provides quite a bit of support to you 1 full session for the price of the 1/2 session to be paid up front. Or something equivalent. Any other suggestions?

And Mr. Walluz, that offer was sincere but it would be for a McDonalds hobby day, not a Perry's Steakhouse...haha Originally Posted by rustyshackleford112.7

good advice here. you don't even have to admit you're broke, just say great blowout specials n leave it at that.

guaranteed way to lose a client is make him feel like he's your personal atm machine..
