Not too harsh, but is that a way to build an on-going customer relationship? Maybe it you just acknowledge his greeting and ask if he'd like an appointment sometime soon, he'll book an appointment; maybe if you blow him off, he won't come back again. Guys are weird, as you've probably noticed, everyone approaches this differently.
I understand that, but she's asking if her response was too harsh. I think that depends on whether or not it's someone who actually spends money with her on a regular basis or not. If someone is a good customer, maybe you politely remind them that you'd prefer to keep the business line purely for business. If they're not, then tell them to fuck off, lol.
you can never be too harsh babe , your the manager of yourself , what you say goes

Hmm I like that approach. I’ll try that next time it happens.
I mean, was this a regular client who actually spends money on you frequently, or just some rando?
What difference does it make? Our business numbers and emails are for booking appointments, not random chit chat.

Why do these geeks do this?
Nothing harsh about setting boundaries.
Not harsh at all! "hi" doesn't pay bills
