A bride messages you at 10pm. You’re asleep, or halfway through a trial. By the time you reply, she’s already heard back from two other artists.
It’s not that you’re bad at business. Nobody teaches artists how to run an inquiry system. So you answer the same questions in DMs, chase down event dates, and hope nothing slips through. You’re a makeup artist, not a full-time receptionist, and your booking process shouldn’t depend on how fast you can type.
