10 Rights of Service Business Owners
by Maria Marsala
Summary: Some business owners take the old adage, "The Client's Always Right" to a degree that you're accepting abuse from clients.
You don't have to. You have rights, too.
- You have the right to price your business services right!
- You have the right to raise your prices at any time.
- You have the right to say no to those who only want to "pick your brain."
- You have the right to set boundaries that are in line with your integrity!
- You have the right to terminate conversations with others because you don't feel that your experience is being respected.
- You have a right to charge clients a late fee for not paying you promptly.
- You have the right not only to charge more for rush jobs or jobs requested over the weekend - you have the right to say no to doing them.
- You have the right to make mistakes, missteps, learn, and do better next time.
- You have the right to have fun and enjoy your "business."
- You have the right to say no to someone in order to say YES to you!
