How clients find me! Reiki Surry Hills

img_1637

I love how clients find me.

It seems mysterious but I suppose it’s not. After all, my website is pretty easy to find on Google. The closest train station to me is Central. There are a lot of people who live or work near Surry Hills.

But I still find it a bit magical. There are quite a few other reiki practitioners in Sydney (I’ve been working my way up the google rankings, and at the moment am halfway down the second page!).

So, it does require clients to find me somehow. During these last busy months, I’ve found that I’ve been getting good word of mouth, where clients are referring me to their friends, or even enthusiastically giving their friends treatments as gifts. One client treated two of his staff members. Another client sent her lawyer for a treatment. And another brought not one but both of her sisters!

I also have been building up a nice group of return clients. As you’ll know if you come for a treatment, I always send a follow-up email, and sometimes two, and try to keep in touch. At the same time, my clients are able to notice the positive changes and benefits for themselves, and then make the time to come in again when it feels right to have another treatment.

Most of my clients come from Google searches, and to add to that, a fair number have come in because of the positive reviews (thanks reviewers!). I can see that these clients are happy to do some research, and they want to make sure if they come in for a treatment that it’s a practice that is trusted and receives good feedback. I myself wouldn’t trust a business as much if they don’t have any reviews at all, and at the same time, I’ve noticed at least one other reiki business that has fake reviews (all the same language but different names of reviewers!). But I think people can spot fake reviews pretty easily.

I spend so much time on Facebook in my personal life that I thought that I might get clients from my Facebook page, but to tell the truth, I’m not sure if anyone’s ever come through Facebook, though I’ve had some enquiries.

A number of people come because it’s the most convenient location for them, since it’s pretty much walking distance from Potts Point, Darlinghurst, Redfern and even the city. Some clients have been visiting Sydney and staying in accommodation (or having meetings) close by). One client lives farther away but combines a treatment with visiting her parents who live closeby! But a recent client decided to treat herself to a few hours in the city and came all the way from the Shire.

Finally, it’s nice to know that clients come because they’ve visited my webpage and get a good feel from it. I’ve had a number of clients say that they liked the vibe of the site, or that they’d visited other reiki websites and didn’t really click with either the way reiki was described, or the reiki practitioners themselves. It’s not to say that one reiki practitioner will be better than another, but certainly if you like the energy that you get from my website (and Facebook page), then you’ll hopefully also like my energy in person. It’s important when having a treatment to be able to feel comfortable and safe.

In any case, however you find me, I’m glad! I look forward to seeing you for your next reiki treatment!

Clients come from all over Sydney to see me, and I’ve also had clients who are visiting Sydney from Melbourne, Brisbane and the Gold Coast come and see me while they’re here for business, conferences or meeting families. While it’s easiest to get to me from the CBD, Darlinghurst, Paddington, Kings Cross, Redfern and Potts Point, I’m pretty easy to get to from anywhere in Sydney.

Away 18 Feb–23 May & report from the start of 2016

The end of 2015 and start of 2016 were interesting. Clients came seeking relief from stress,  feeling like a cold was coming on, and emotional turmoil. One client reported feeling very relaxed after the treatment and as if she had big burdens lifted… but has returned after to being stressed out all the time. Another client felt neither better nor worse after the treatment. Another said she felt ‘as balanced as I can be’ and that it was an ‘excellent service’.

AndyQ_64I always find it interesting how different the results are from treatments, and am always happy if I can be of any help. I think generally I found that clients feel relaxed, or energised during the treatment, and have an interesting experience of the energy. But they may have problems maintaining that feeling of well-being after the treatment.

What I emphasise is that someone may feel different effects from a reiki treatment, even between two in the same week or month. Reiki is not a solution to an emotional, psychological or physical problem, but it may provide some help and relief. Some people find it very powerful; others can hardly feel the effects.

I think it’s a great idea if you’re called to try reiki, to try out a treatmet and see how it feels for you. It’s also useful if you can catch yourself before you’re feeling in crisis to make that appointment. If it felt good or useful during or after a treatment, then why not view it as something generally good for yourself, and that could also help head off difficult times, rather than only be used when you’re feeling really terrible.

It’s as good a time as any to say that I’m overseas soon, like last year, and will be unavailable to give treatments between 18 February and 23 May. But don’t be a stranger. Message me if you have any enquiries or want to keep in touch.
