Hi all.. (sighs)
Have just settled a rental space in a wonderful boutique.. for £20 /day // am only goign to be able to work 2 days and maybe a saturday which the lady has said i can just pay her £10 as half day on saturdays...
anyway.. after looking at my prices she mentioned putting them down a bit.. i explained that i wasnt prepared to move my prices.. to be fair at the end of the day i am only renting the space from her.. this is my business and my prices..
just had my first client enquiry ( i start next thursday).. via FB and i had to contact her... gave her my number to give me a call to discuss on phone,.. or i woudl phone her if she gave me her contact details.. she asked me what i did and what prices..
I told her £28 for gel extensions with white tip, natural tip pre colored tip
£35 for sculpted pink and white.. (french)
she said .. ermm i was hop ing for £20.. !!! apparently when she went into the shop she was expecting me to do them for less..
I dont think my prices are that unreasonable.. and i dont know what the young lady was charging before me.. am just now worried that people are expecting it all for less than i have set out and not come :O(..
I was mobile.. but have just started again due to having a baby.. so working hard on clientele.. was hoping being in a shop woudl be better as am still suffering from bad pelvis :O(..
I hope my prices are not going to put people off.. and potential clients are not going to dictate to me what i shoudl be charging !!! getting a little worried now and hoping this is going to work.. as i am not going back to my non nails job..
i use harmony gel and gelish ..so it is not low end of the shelf products ..
is there anyone been or is in my position and feelin a tad worried about prices..
sorry for long rant had to get this out before i went to bed lol.
