Running a business isn’t always easy. Some days, it’s the work itself that’s challenging. Other days, it’s the endless back-and-forth with people questioning your rates.
“I spend more time explaining my fees than actually doing the work,” one business owner admitted. “It feels like all my energy goes into justifying the value of what I offer instead of focusing on serving my clients.”
Fees aren’t just numbers — they reflect experience, quality, and the effort behind the service. And while some people may complain, it doesn’t change the value you provide.
Sometimes, the best approach is simple: stand firm, communicate clearly, and remember that your time is worth more than arguing over cents.
