Draft a booking and cancellation policy for a salon. Services and typical appointment lengths: [SERVICES_LENGTHS]. Current no-show and late cancellation problems: [PROBLEMS]. Deposit options I am considering: [DEPOSIT_OPTIONS]. Booking system: [BOOKING_SYSTEM]. Write a policy in plain, friendly language of about 250 words covering how to book, change and cancel, notice needed, what happens with late arrivals, deposits, and exceptions for emergencies at my discretion. Add a short version for the booking page, reminder message wording, and a script for staff to explain the policy without sounding harsh. Provide a table that compares three policy options on fairness, protection of income and client experience. Mark consumer rules on deposits and fees as items to verify [VERIFY] for [JURISDICTION]. Include a plan to review the policy after 90 days using the no-show rate. Also add a worked example showing the lost income from three no-shows a week at an invented average ticket, labelled as an illustration, to help me decide whether a deposit is worth introducing. Add a section on implementation and exceptions. Provide a rollout plan: update the booking page, send an email or message to existing clients two weeks before the policy starts, train staff on how to explain it, and introduce it with a grace period. Add a decision guide for exceptions (illness, bereavement, emergencies, first offences, long-standing clients) with the approver and a record template. Include a script for handling a client who disputes a fee, a template for waiving a fee graciously, and a monthly report of no-shows and late cancellations before and after the policy. Remind me that consumer protection and card payment rules vary and should be checked [VERIFY] for [JURISDICTION], and that being too rigid or too lax both have costs. Show your working for any numbers, label every estimate as mine, and flag regulatory questions [VERIFY] with [JURISDICTION] so I can take them to a qualified adviser before acting.
