    I would maybe suggest disclosing your fees over the phone or email. Unless you are running way higher then your area. If someone told me that they discuss fees in person I may skip them too because if they are higher then area average it would be a wasste of my time. Just my feelings on it. But you really have to consider why you're keeping your rates such a secret.

    As for the hold... I don't like to take holding fees because if the client doesn't work out they've dropped all this money into holding a space. I would feel obligated to keep them.

    I may try to convince the client that you are filling a space immediatly and you could offer a part time space through the summer turning into full time in sept.
