Sports Clips!

I'm moving to Ingomar in less than 2 weeks, so I'm in search of a new place to get my hair cut. I received a free cut coupon in the mail for a place called Sports Clips. I went there today, and I had a great experience.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a smile, and I was checked in immediately. I was a new client, so they said I received a complimentary MVP! I was taken to a barber's chair right away and asked how I would like my hair cut. Through out my hair cut, my hair stylist kept the conversation going by asking me questions about my family and job. After my cut was done, I was taken to the sink where she washed my hair and put a warm towel over my face. She took me back to my chair, and she had a machine that gave me a back massage. On my way out, she gave me a $5 coupon off my next visit and a free cut for a friend. This was the best hair cut experience I've ever had!

I think there are some things the church can learn from Sports Clips.

1. They made me feel right at home right away.
2. They explained everything before it happened.
3. They treated me like an MVP.
4. They made me want to come back.
5. They gave me an immediate tool to invite a friend.
