mr. Steamer: Food is fuel. In some cases jet fuel? No food. No fuel? No work! |

I don't believe you get what you pay for..... It all depends on the individual I like to do a great job no matter the price... There are people that charge more...but still can't do what I do... there are people that charge less...and still can't do what I do...

The biggest mistake people getting into the business make is charging to little for their service,once you have a customer used to a certain price for your service they will drop you real quick when you double the price so you can make a dime for your service. Keep track of your costs to operate your business, everybody has different costs associated with their business, if you work out your house vs. someone who rents a shop, has a girl working the office etc. etc. I would never post how much I charge, nor never give advice on what you should charge, most of the stuff I read on other boards is a bunch of crap when they post how much they charge, and how many sq. ft. they can do in an hour. |

Some people that are just starting out have to charge a little less, just to get some business until you get your name out there, even if you know you are worth more than the guy that is charging more.

So true, CREATE your own market, do NOT depend at ALL on what your competitors are charging, create the NEED and VALUE of YOUR service.
