Many years ago a business consultant friend gave me some advice. FWIW, I'd like to pass it on, as it has bearing on this discussion.
"Never," he insisted, "offer friends and family a discount. Either charge them full bore, or give it to them for free."
Anything in between, he pointed out, is a sure-fire way to hard feelings and a minimum.
Been my experience that he was 100% on the mark. |
