When you start a quilting related business, whether providing services or selling products, you always wonder what to charge. Should you start out lower than the competition because you aren’t sure if you’re as good as others? Or should you charge what everyone else is?
If you’ve developed a reputation for yourself already, you definitely can get top dollar when you begin a business. But what if you’re fairly new and don’t have a household familiar name?
Jean Murray discusses this topic at Home Biz Notes, Should New Home Business Owners Charge Less? Take a look at Jean’s post and see what ideas you come up with about charging in your own business.
Remember – Don’t downplay your talents and abilities. Keep in mind what the market will bear in your area. It will differ in various parts of your country and the world. Also, figure out your costs/expenses so you don’t lose money.
How have you worked out the “charge factor” in your business?

Thanks for the comment. If someone is good, they should charge what they are worth, even if they are new to the business.
