FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Standard priceing is based on the customer coming to me: $25/30 min. $38/45 min. $50/60 min. Travel incurs additional fees.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I want to hear that person play! If you can play in front of someone, you're halfway there. If you're a complete beginner, I'll show you something you can imitate. Then you're not a beginner anymore!
