Very good points. Im getting more and more aggressive with my marketing but i may still be a little quick to push aside ideas for fear of stepping on toes. I'm doing well getting over this, but it takes time. I will probably gear it towards a particular niche. I dont think this camp does afternoon sessions, so maybe that could be an option.

Yeah very true, i meant 4 free sessions, one a week. I will give out a specific number if i go this route.

I hear pros and cons about free sessions. Maybe if the person "won" the free sessions, and you called them up with a congratulatory phone call, they would be more inclined to keep the appointment.
What do you recommend for gathering information( phone, addy, email, ect.)? Lead boxes or just have people fill out forms or maybe sign up for a free newsletter?
