Daniel, as you might have picked up from my recent comments, I'm entering my internship on Apr 4...will be qualified to take the licensing exam (which I expect to pass easy enough). I'll still have 3 more months to graduate w/ my degree in Sept. But I'll be licensed, and can begin seeking paying clients about June.
Lacking money for a full-scale startup, I'll seek work in casino spa, chiro office, etc and will take clients at home. I have my website up already--not the equal of yours, certainly. But it attracts a few clients. I plan to go after outcall business-- their homes for full body, their offices for chair massage.
But I don't have a clue how to approach corporate for employee chair massage. If you have any words of advice, I'll gratefully listen. For instance, does the office usually pay for the employees, do they themselves pay, sensible rate to pay, should I go into this with another therapist or will that split the available clients too much-- all the things you wish you had known when you started to seek corporate clients.
With tax refund I invested in a quality chair and a table cart...have a supply of sheets and oils/lotions, so I'm raring to get started the moment I get license in hand.

Looks very intriguing, definitely something that I will need to look further into :)

Thanks, Daniel. I may pick your brains later, when I know what questions to ask.
