During my last shift, I was chatting to a customer about my future goals, which include landscape design. He told me that he has a huge yard and would love help for spring planting. I've never considered meeting anyone outside the club before, but this is what I love doing, and he said we would discuss compensation for this tomorrow.
I feel really weird having someone pay me for this, as I'm not graduated yet, and I'm sure he could hire someone with more experience but obviously he is more interested in the company. I want to be as professional as possible, and really implement some skills and techniques that I've learned throughout school. I just have no idea how much to ask for. I've never considered meeting someone OTC but I love garden design and it would be cool to actually do it for a client!
How do you consider price when you meet someone OTC? I want to ask for a fairly steep amount because there is a lot of planning and hard that go into my projects, but also I want to milk the fact that I am a beautiful work of art myself. Not only is having your home's landscape designed by me a priceless commodity, so is my company. lol![]()
