Hello everybody. This is episode 28 extended. And what you'll hear today is the fuller interview

that I had with tattoo artist Gunner. You heard just a short segment of this in the full

episode 28 psychological tattooing, which came out just two days ago. If you haven't heard that one

yet, go back and check it out.

It was a really great episode, and I've gotten a ton of amazing feedback already from all of you,

so thank you for all those very kind messages.

Also, this extended episode is brought to you this week by Go Reminders.

Tattoers are really anyone that works by appointment.

You know how frustrating it can be when your customer just doesn't show up

Especially when you've drawn for them or done whatever preparation was necessary

Sometimes I think people just forget or it almost seems like they don't think that you'll notice and they just float off into the universe never to be heard from again

Wouldn't you like to eliminate no-shows while saving time and

increasing revenue? Go Reminders sends automatic appointment reminders via text message and email.

With one saved appointment per month, go reminders more than pays for itself. This is something I see

from my dentist or doctor's office and I know that I probably would have

forgotten some appointments in the past without getting that text message reminder. It's a no-brainer

that tattooers should utilize a tool like this as well. It's super easy to get started, just a 10-second

setup and completely free to try for two weeks. So that's really no risk and you don't even have to

put your credit card info to get that free trial, which is pretty sweet.

Because I always forget to cancel those and then you get charged and that's how they get you.

I know a lot of tattooers act like they're scared of technology, but you're listening to a podcast right now.

You're cool. You're hip. It's almost the year 2020. The future is now.
