The illustration John presents, was used some years ago by Robert Saunders, to show c/c's that by increasing their charges, they might lose a fair percentage of turnover, but be more profitable, for less work.

Craig
yes i agree. Sorry if i gave the impression of earning £2500 a week cos i don't
£2495, maybe
All i try and do is to try and guess my leaflets success rate, then i know how many to get out in a week to try to achieve this.
Best to remember we earn a lot more than a lot of people out there and we have got freedom.

Ive always thought that Senerio a load of Rubbish.
When you are fully booked you put your prices up, when you are not ypu put your prices down.
Fully Booked for some people could mean home by 2.39pm
Hence put price up
Other might want to work longer.
Or you could have available x jobs a week available at a lower price to fill days
The other way is to increase your marketing effort to maintain higher prices.

Gary, poll is a very good thing, but I wanted to know Ian's opinion. By the way what is yours opinion regarding yearly turnover, I am not sure if you have voted
Kind regards,
