They
Perhaps It’s true for those part-time SWs, but if this is your full-time job and you’re experiencing a considerable drop in clientele, you’re actually doing yourself a disservice by increasing rates. Adding $100 to a rate doesn’t compensate for fully losing established or potential customers. Maybe it’s true they’d rather see fewer people due to Covid, but it remains to be seen if they’ll adjust their rates. I’ve personally had girls complain about the sharp drop in clients and loss of profit, yet they would never lower their rates.
This is where they land themselves in a quandary; they seem to think this business is the same as any other, yet somehow exempt from the laws that govern them.
