How Often Do You Raise Your Rates?

[Momof4]

Ok, then I'm doing just fine. I'll raise it next year I guess. I'm right in the middle around here an I know I make a lot more than a lot of people can charge.

I gave myself Easter Monday and Christmas Eve Day 2 years ago and didn't change anything at all this year. So next year at contract renewals I'm raising my rates $2/day and I've already informed all 5 of my clients that it will happen and let them know that it is simply to keep up with rising food costs. You can use that line too, feel free! It's certainly not a lie!
