Do you feel you have to bacause you haven't put them up for a couple of years? Do you put them up because your not earning enough money?
My prices have remained the same for the two years i've been going. I'm reluctant to increase them because of the economical climate and the fact that i'm making a good living. What about you?


ps. went through the local free paper today and looked at the wages being offered for some quite demanding jobs.

If Inflation turns into deflation does that mean some w/c's will be reducing their prices

i usually increase when my  current rate falls below new work ,
 
if you now what i mean 

have just put up some work that was very good  paying for quite a few years ,

but with my  newer higher priced work , these had fallen a bit behind, hense the increase, all accepted it, remarking that they were  surprised i did not put them up ages ago

mine were due to go up this year, ive held back though

you need to put them up every so often as inflation dictates that, afterall 10 quid 5 years ago is worth less than today, thus your taking a pay cut every year

Assuming you can actually afford to risk losing a few jobs, use it as a weeding out tool. Look at your jobs and pick the ones that are obviously undercharged either because you haven't put prices up in the past or you have underpriced to start with. And target jobs or people you don't like Why do a job you don't like because it's awkward or Mrs X in a pain in the proverbial for anything less than a top price?
