I probably have around 100 customers I do mowing or discing for. Some beat me down on my price, like this one guy last week. he lives in a very expensive area, with three cars in his garage, and a motorhome in the same garage. I told him 150.00 he said how about 100.00. Today another guy calles me and wants me to mow his field again, and tells me to double the price, which makes 100 into 200. Another guy tells me to raise my price, I just can't do it, as I already charge more than it's worth. I am either not charging enough, or there are just a few nice people still around. These people don't realize if I charge 100.00 for under a hour, 15.00 comes off each job for lilability insurance. then license, and insurance for the truck, then fuel, and finally taxes. I could just tell the tight wads no, but then I would make nothing, so I still make a little. Stan
