But if you do the maths how much more in real terms are you earning?
My expenses for the year exceed £5000 easily.
Trad would only be the cost of fuel.
WFP has to be quicker just to pay the business costs, if you don't earn more then there's not much point in using it apart from H&S. issues.
My costs have increased, of course they have. My annual costs are in line with yours. But if you think that hte only cost tradding was fuel then you havent looked hard enough.
I doubled my income overnight going from trad to WFP, which more than paid for any additional business expenses.
The way I look at it and using my example above is a good one. I f I had traded that property Id have done £160, it would have taken at least a day, Id have been knackered completely the next day (it was leaded) and therefore the next day my income would have suffered.
Doing it WFP I earnt a
top-notch hourly rate, over and above my intended rate, after and hour and a half I was then able to go on and exceed my daily target and the next day was able to get up and do it all over again.
You WILL lose otherwise lucrative work if you continue to price
some work at trad rates. Its biting your nose off to spite your face and bad business sense.
