You newcomers to the business have a great advantage over us oldies. When I started a good price for a suite was £35 and a reasonable price £25. Now we are charging that per seat, it is difficult for us to get our head round it. The only thing stopping us charging a good price is in our own head. Charge as you mean to go on. Dont set your prices too cheap, you will only get the rubbish jobs, when I incresed my prices by 50-70% a few years ago I just lost all the rubbish jobs, did less work on nicer carpets for some smashing people and made more money--- makes sense. And they keep coming back so I cant be that wrong!
