When should you write up a retail sale?

Before starting any consultation
During the treatment
After the post consultation
At the end of the day

The correct answer is: After the post consultation

Writing up a retail sale after the post consultation is ideal because it aligns with providing thorough and personalized service. During the post consultation, the esthetician has the opportunity to discuss the client’s specific needs, preferences, and the benefits of the products that were used or recommended during the treatment. This timing allows for a detailed explanation of how the products can enhance the client’s at-home skincare routine, which can increase the likelihood of a sale. Preparing the sale beforehand doesn’t take into account the nuances of what the client may need after the treatment. Conducting a sale during the treatment could distract from providing proper care and focus on the client's experience. Writing it up at the end of the day may lead to missed opportunities, as the information about the treatment will be fresher and more relevant immediately after the consultation. This understanding emphasizes the importance of timing and relevance in the sales process, highlighting the two-way communication necessary for effective consultations and product recommendations.
