Feedback and testimonials are invaluable tools to help you grow and thrive as a Practice Tarot Reader. Not only do they provide insight into your reading style and delivery, but they also encourage reflection and skill-building as you progress on your Tarot journey.
Let’s explore why feedback matters, how it works, and how to use testimonials ethically and effectively.
Why Feedback is Helpful
Feedback is one of the most powerful ways to learn and grow as a reader. It offers you a chance to:
- Identify Strengths: Discover what resonates most with your clients.
- Refine Your Skills: Pinpoint areas for improvement, from interpretation to communication.
- Build Confidence: Positive feedback can be a wonderful confidence booster.
Remember to stay open to all types of feedback, even when it’s not glowing. Every piece of feedback is an opportunity to grow and develop into a stronger, more intuitive reader.
The Real Value of Practice Readings is... PRACTICE!
While client feedback is highly encouraged, it’s not guaranteed. Some clients may not respond, even with multiple reminders. In these cases, focus on the true value of the experience itself:
- The practice of delivering readings builds your confidence and hones your skills.
- Every reading is a chance to refine your ability to communicate and connect with clients.
- See unreturned feedback as a lesson in detachment and a reminder to focus on the joy of reading.
How Feedback Works on the PTR
Here’s how the feedback process is designed to work, inside of the Practice Tarot Readings platform:
- Client Prompted for Feedback: Once you submit your reading, clients receive an email prompting them to log back into their account to leave feedback.
- Reminders Sent: If they don’t respond immediately, clients are sent multiple reminders over a 7-day period.
- Feedback Submission: Clients provide a star rating and answer a series of questions about their reading experience.
- Review Feedback: Once the client submits their feedback, you can review it on your dashboard.
Tip: If feedback hasn’t been provided, you can also reach out to the client with a gentle reminder. However, keep in mind that feedback is not guaranteed.
Reflecting on Feedback
When you receive feedback, take a moment to pause and reflect:
- Celebrate Your Wins: Acknowledge what went well and take pride in your growth.
- Learn from Criticism: If you receive constructive feedback, consider how you can adapt and improve.
- Maintain Perspective: Feedback reflects the client’s experience, not your worth as a reader.
Using and Publishing Client Testimonials
Testimonials are a fantastic way to build confidence and establish credibility as you grow your practice. If you plan to use feedback as a testimonial, here are some important guidelines:
- Ask for Permission: Always get explicit permission from your client before sharing their feedback. Let them know where and how it will be used.
- Be Transparent: Share the client’s words exactly as they were provided.
- Respect Privacy: Avoid sharing personal information about the client unless they’ve agreed.
A Note on Soliciting Business
While it’s natural to feel proud of your work, please avoid promoting your professional services on the Practice Tarot Reading platform. You may only share your details if a client specifically asks if you offer paid readings. Otherwise, maintain the integrity of the platform by focusing on practice and growth.
Success Tips for Feedback
- Set the Stage: Add a note at the end of your reading requesting feedback and explaining how it helps you grow as a reader.
- Stay Curious: Approach feedback as a tool for discovery, not judgment.
- Engage with Gratitude: If a client provides thoughtful feedback, thank them for their insights.
