Frequently Asked Questions

Why should a customer hire you over another service provider?

Excellent service to customers is my number one priority to ensure customer satisfaction. I also offer mobile services for customers who like their private space.

What experience, skills, qualifications or training do you have to make you the right person for the job?

I have a retail background which has fuelled my customer service skill. I was also a marketing student at TUT 2010.

Is there a particular aspect of your trade or industry that you specialise in?

Beauty/creative makeup for photoshoots/TV,film makeup

How do you normally charge for your service?

Minimum amount of R700

What makes your pricing competitive?

It is very reasonable for anyone who would like a professional beauty service, I use brands that are available locally. My service is mobile and I also work from home so that I don’t pay rent for a salon and that allows me to charge reasonable amounts.

Are there any special offers you would like to offer to Uptasker customers?

For regular customers I offer a fixed discounted monthly fee instead of paying per booking.

How can a customer save money before you start the work? Please give 3 tips

I have an option of paying a deposit in advance (2 instalments) and the Remaining balance when the work is complete.

What are the typical things that you need to know before you can provide a quote to a customer?

I need to know the distance of the client so that I can calculate the call out fee for travelling. I also need to know the type of the event the client is going to, so that I can plan properly (types of looks for weddings/photoshoot etc).

Are you an insured business and do you guarantee your work?

I am a top rated makeup artist on Malakyt SA (a platform for beauty specialists) I guarantee my work and the reviews speak for themselves.

What questions should a customer ask to hire the right service professional?

Ask if they have ever done the type of work that the customer is asking for and also ask for referrals and social media accounts to check for themselves.

What makes you the most reliable and trustworthy person for the job?

I document everything for customers and give them professional invoices with all the details as a backup for them should they want to take legal steps against me if I fail to deliver what has been agreed up. I communicate with my clients regularly.
