Question

ok so me and my friend are bored this summer and want to make more money we decided to make a neighborhood service program.were only 13 and we are beginers at this. how much should we charge for things like babysitting yard work, house cleaning, watering plants,pet sitting, walking dogs, washing dogs and running errands?!?

Answer 1

See if you can poll the local competition. That way, you can get a good idea of the going rate. If you are going to charge more, make sure that your services are worth it. Go the extra mile. Make sure that they are so impressed that they want you back (actually, do that anyway. it ensures that you have long term business, not just short term)

If you will charge less, make sure that you charge enough to cover any expenses and a little profit.

Next, always designate a little money put aside (as one of your expenses) for expenses and advertising for more business.

In order to be of worth what to your customers, you must be worth more than you are paid.
