#5Things
5 Things to Remember when Setting your Pricing
From Erich Campbell
- Bargain pricing promotes narrow margins.
- Profit is the point.
- Pay yourself for labor, even when you are solo. (Minimum to Maintain)
- Value isn’t / doesn’t have to be pegged to cost.
- You are selling the limited hours of your life. Price those, not shirts.
