The Fees
A new computer consultant often makes the mistake of under
charging. Here are some ways to help determine if you are leaving money on
the table as a computer consultant.
It is important not to assume everyone is technology
inclined. In fact, most people have fears of attempting to fix or change
too much on their computer. They are afraid they will kill it and cannot
be restored.
Your knowledge as a computer consultant is valuable. You
are the specialist in your niche in the computer industry, much as a
specialist in the medical field. Your services as a computer consultant
are valuable. Don't be afraid to charge for your knowledge and experience.
Another reason computer consultant fees may have a wider
variance than most industries is due to location. A large metropolitan
area may often command higher fees for the same services, than a smaller
rural location.
A bit of investigation in your area should help easily
determine whether you have your computer consultant fees set correctly.
One often overlooked area of potential income is in
referral fees. This can be quite lucrative, especially considering the
number of computer specialists available today. Learning to negotiate
referral fees when your customer has needs outside your niche can be quite
rewarding.
