Hit 500 clients this month and it honestly floored me

I do hair out of a small salon in Akron, Ohio, and I keep a pretty simple notebook tally of every client that sits in my chair. I flipped through it last Tuesday and saw I crossed the 500 mark for the month of October. That number surprised me because I work solo, no assistant, and I usually cap at 4 to 5 cuts or color jobs a day. It made me think about how much volume we actually push through without noticing the grind. Has anyone else hit a milestone like that and felt totally caught off guard by it?

Ngl that's a solid milestone! I track my bookings pretty close too and it hits different when you actually see the number staring back at you.

Is that with the new dashboard or manual counting @veramartin... numbers hit different when you actually do the math yourself.

Idk, is it really that deep though? Like, hitting a milestones nice and all but at the end of the day its just a number on a screen. Youre still gonna wake up tomorrow and have to do the same stuff you did today. Maybe its just me but I never really get the hype around tracking stuff that close, it feels like setting yourself up to stress over something that doesnt really matter that much.
