Well, this month has been the first this year I didn't improve on the last months turnover and profit...partly I believe down to seasonal downturn, but also due to rising prices from suppliers, increased postage and delivery, higher fuel costs when travelling and general running costs are having an impact, if I compare to my 'cost' per client year on year for the same period last year.
That all taken into account, I believe I should naturally be thinking of increasing my prices, but am concerned as to the impact this may have given the current uncertainty in people's minds about the financial climate.
So, I'm interested in your opinions. If I charge for example, £35 for a full set, and £25 for overlays and rebalance....how much would you think I could get away with without an adverse impact on business. Or should I shelve the whole idea until New Year and swallow the increased cost myself...merely capitalising on hopefully forthcoming Christmas trade?
I'm already, by the way, the most expensive tech in town....that said I am the best tech in town! There is one other salon....enhancements (£30) not great but they do nice Calgel overlays for £25, and couple of mobile girls who knock out full sets for anywhere between £15 and £25.
Thanks in advance....look forward to your thoughts x
