Group And Private Lesson Swim InstructorI scheduled and organized swim classes for over a hundred private lesson clients. I am in constant communication with clients through text message, email, and phone calls. I keep clients up to date on scheduling changes and conflicts, then work with them to find a solution. Because of the many personal requests from clients to work with me, I created a cancelation list for waiting clients. Now when someone cancels or needs to reschedule I contact the client on the cancelation list and schedule them. This was a solution I created to meet the needs of the community and keep my clients satisfied, and ultimately increased company revenue. My boss was thrilled with my idea and shared it with other employees.•Communication with clients.•Keeps a structured and organized schedule•Up to date on scheduling changes and conflicts•Organized a system to meet the needs of the community and requesting clients•Increased company revenue
