Even though i can afford to lose plenty i still find the process nerve racking, just starting to put all of mine up now that havent had a price rise for 2 years. So far lost 4 mainly new ones that ive only cleaned once haha

I feel like im pushing it now with price rises its making me cringe pressing the button

Why didn’t you price the new ones at a higher price to begin with? If you are stacked with work price them high and if you don’t get them it’s no biggie.

This is exactly what we are doing 👍

Needed the work at the time

I was forgetting you briefly had an employee, so you would have been trying to build more work.

Not too bad with the increases....more wanting to lengthen frequency...I had a monthly want to go 3 monthly today🙄...and numerous others..but you can’t take £15 monthly and put it to £20 x2 monthly...they would surely go elsewhere 🤔

[andycap]

I will add ,new house owners ie youngsters mainly....

If its £15 monthly and they want it bi monthly then I price it at £18, never had a problem.
If your good they will stay

I added 25%  if she wanted to go every other time to one particular customer that thought she could dictate the frequency lol,she soon said ok still join me in every time.
That’s the only time I’ve increased prices over the last year there’s no need imo just another couple of jobs a week cover the increases we’ve seen,multiple vans and half a dozen staff it’s a different ball game but certainly not for people that are sole traders.

There in lies your problem , we aim for customer 35 years old upwards and don’t get theses issues , we only offer 4-8 weekly on domestic nothing else if one’s hesitant when quoting we don’t take them on simple as that , it’s vary rare that we get a cancellation or any other issues I think at the quoting stage you need ti set your stall out with what you will provide for the customers and what you expect from them ,

I think you’re getting mixed up Nigel, sole traders can have staff, do you mean a one man band?
Personally I think it makes a lot more sense to put  prices up to cover the increased cost of living rather than doing more work. I don’t think telling teachers, nurses, train drivers etc etc to do an extra hour or two per week to cover the cost of living would go down too well😂

Train drivers I know 10-20 of them lol they don’t
Need anymore money m8 trust me they are laughing under their breath.

[DJW]

You know 20 train drivers?
