It is really quite simple; in fact I have fun with it.

I send our a humorous vacation notice weeks in advance so all urgent matters can be addressed before I leave and I invite them to engage my services in a fun way like this:

Greetings all,

Perhaps the greatest ability one can have when serving others is avail-ability.

I pride myself on being available to serve you so it is important for me to share with you that I will be un-available from Thursday, April 3rd, 2008 through Monday, April 14th, 2008.

My Vacation Rates are listed below: Hope you see the humor here…

- $ 65.00 an hour I will be unavailable until the 14th of April.

- $150.00 an hour I will share my private cell phone number with you and take notes about your requests though I will still be unavailable until the 14th of April.

- $1,000.00 an hour I will take you on Vacation with us. (though Additional fees and definite restrictions will apply)

No one wants to begrudge you of your time away - they will understand.

Several clients were even kidding me about joining us on vacation.

Be well,
Dave
