File and French Polish, hand lotion £9 to expensive??? client just rang me said could get pedicure, polish for £20:cry::cry: me bit down now just worry im charging to much xx
 
I dont think your charging too much although i dont do pedicures but i would charge the same for the other two x
 
Hi choochy, that doesn't sound too expensive to me. Maybe they were just trying to see if they could get you to drop your prices a bit? I wouldn't worry too much.
 
:) aaaaah thanx guys, it did make my tummy go over after, I do worry alot :cry: xx
 
You are not too expensive .. some peeps are just too cheap!!
 
that sounds fine.
you will always get it. ive just opened up mine and for the first few weeks was really nervous when i said my prices.
you will get the ones saying its too exspensive.

we had one woman say ' that the shop down the road does it cheaper'.
we dropped it a little bit but not to what she said. but later found out that the shop down the road wasnt cheaper at all. thats was my first lesson.

and wil never do it again.

you will also get the ones saying that its a good price and you cant please them all.

9.00 isnt too much i think she was trying to see if you would drop it slightly.
 
I dont think that is expensive, I charged 12 for a french before i dropped it from my treatment list a few weeks ago.

hey huni wot did you do,was that just file and french to? :confused: xx
 
It's certainly not expensive; next time someone says that remember it's not that you're too expensive, it's just they're too cheap! If ever they question your prices, stay firm & say you cannot comment on what another chooses to charge for their services, and that your prices are a fair reflection of the time & materials you shall be expending.

In fact, I charge quite a bit more than you & shall be putting my prices up a bit in October. I charge £10 just for a file & polish (no handcream).
 
yes a file and french. I charge 8 for a file and polish and then 12 for a french.
 
:) aaaah thank you, you are all so lovely, I was sooooo upset rang my mummy and I could have cryed:cry::cry: but you have all helped me im going to stick to my guns then, and try not to worry so much Thank you xx
 
You need to have conviction in your prices and I know this is hard , but dont back down when someone say you are too expensive.

The words you are hearing when they say that is " YOU are too expensive" but, what they mean is " THE TREATMENT is too expensive for me, I want to pay less". Remember that and it doesnt sting anymore!

You have spent a lot of time and effort researching your market, pricing your services, etc. Dont let yourself be undermined by such comments, have faith in yourself
