One of the biggest mistakes in the trade is charging too cheap — especially early on.
It just makes you busier, stressed, and stuck. A few things to remember:
💰 Price the job, not just the timeYou’re charging for experience, tools, travel, risk, and responsibility — not just hours on site.
🧾 Factor in all your costs
Fuel, materials, insurance, van, software, tax — if it costs you money, it needs to be in your price.
⏱️ Don’t rush quotes
Take time to assess the job properly. Guessing leads to lost money.
📈 Confidence matters
If you don’t believe your price is fair, the customer won’t either.
🚫 Not every job is worth doing
Walking away from bad work protects your time and your business.
Learning how to price properly is what separates staying busy from actually making profit.
