No-shows are almost entirely a policy problem, and policies are easy to change. A deposit and a clear window stop most of the flaking before it happens, without you becoming the mean groomer.

Common questions
Won't a deposit scare clients off?
The clients who show up and rebook don't blink at a deposit, it's normal. The few who bolt are usually the exact ones who were going to no-show anyway.
Where do I put the policy?
Wherever clients book, plus say the one-line version out loud when they book. Saying it like it's normal is what makes clients treat it as normal.
