Amy,
Here's a few questions for you:
How many of your Private Sessions and similar consults are men vs. women?
How many guys do a "thank you" and appear to change of the single consult?
How many women do the same thing?
Those stats would be interesting. Cause sometimes it is the nail.

Can't recall how it breaks down by sex.

Been there, done that. This video hit the nail on the head.

You know, when all you have is a nail, everything start looking like a hammer.

That would be an interesting "study" to do going forward. Just right down the demographics and if/how the follow up goes.
You can have Gregg do the stats at some point. ;-)
But I did enjoy the video.

Also, looking up Dr. Sander Greenland's papers, on p-values and related stuff, helps.
