The week I had three no-shows in a row and almost quit

Last Tuesday I booked five jobs and only two people actually answered their doors. The other three just ghosted me even though they confirmed the night before. I drove 45 minutes to one house in Springfield and sat there for 20 minutes texting with no reply. That wasted gas and time cost me about $180 in lost income for the day. Has anyone else dealt with a string of no-shows like that or do you have a way to screen clients better?

Maybe I should start charging a "ghosting fee" just to break even on my wasted gas...

I heard somewhere that taking deposits stops most of the ghosting.
