Well valerie, we also have a million and one things to do but have to put in an 8 hour shift (or more) to make what you do in an hour, but that's a whole 'nother thread (and topic).
As I mentioned, I'd make it perfectly clear that you are only seeing x amount of clients per day. You could in fact turn this detraction into a positive by indicating your exclusivity or limited availability.
Something like this as your schedule webpage:
Schedule for the week of Oct 25 - 31:
Due to a limited schedule I only see one client per day therefore booked means, that one appointment slot is filled.
Monday- available
Tuesday- Booked
Wednesday- Booked
Thursday-available
etc etc
This is a double bonus: it shows that you aren't getting pounded 10 times a day, it shows that you are popular in the sense that you book up quickly, it lets a client know that if he wants to see you he'll have to advance booking and it also let's the client know that he isn't going to be sloppy 22.....
Me? I positively HATE having to plan when I'm going to get some. It irks me to know end that I have to think 3 days in advance whether I'm going to be in the mood. I have to plan so much of my day for business I don't want to have to schedule my play time.
The one beef I DO have with schedule pages is when you go to a site and the schedule page is from 2 weeks ago. Pretty useless IMO.
