Pricing Inquiry Response Scripts for Nail Salons
Pricing calls are the #1 “quick question” that steals your attention when you’re literally holding someone’s hand and can’t stop mid-service. These scripts help you quote prices fast, protect your time, and still book the appointment—so you don’t lose the client to the salon down the street that answered first.
Standard “How much is a manicure/pedicure?” (simple menu service)
Use when the client asks for a basic service with no add-ons mentioned.
“Totally—our classic manicure is $25, and our pedicure is $35. If you want gel polish, that’s usually an add-on, so the total depends on what you pick. Are you looking for regular polish or gel? And do you want it today or a specific day this week?”
Tips for this scenario
- -Give the base price first ($25 manicure / $35 pedicure), then ask one quick question (regular vs. gel) to narrow it.
- -End with a booking question (“today or this week?”) so the call doesn’t turn into a price-only conversation.
- -If you’re mid-service, keep it to two choices: “regular or gel?” and “today or later?”
