Whether we use one or a combination of more than one method, there are five common methods used in the errand and concierge industry. They are hourly, flat fee, percentage, set fee, and memberships. Hourly is the method used most often and memberships seem to be following right behind.
Corporate pricing is usually put together differently than individual pricing as you are now working with more people. In addition, who pays for the service differs from company to company. Some companies cover all of the cost while other companies subsidize a portion of the cost and still other companies do not pay a dime, but allow you access to their employees who cover the cost of the program.
If you would like to learn more about pricing and other topics that will help you in the errand and concierge industry, then register for my online ECSU™ course this week, May 19-21.

For those of you who have attended our ECSU seminars, I have broken down several pricing topics, including how to run errands for multiple clients and price it properly, what happens when you don’t charge for mileage, how to break down your service area to get the most billable hours, as well as several corporate pricing formulas. We recently had an attendee take the scratch papers I used home with him because the way I broke down pricing to him made it so simple he wanted to remember it when he got home. He stated that that part alone was worth the price he paid to attend ECSU.
On June 1, I am going to be selling those formulas in one report called The Pricing Formula. The cost will be $25.00 for a step by step guide to pricing that you have not seen before. If you would like to pre-order it, click here and you will receive it at 11:00 pm ET May 31 before anyone else can buy it.
