I am currently looking for a place to host clients and I’m trying to figure out how to offset my cost of hosting since I will be having to pay rent, buy furniture, decorations , constantly clean the place, change sheets and do laundry. I am stuck between the idea of increasing my hourly rate across-the-board or charging a separate hosting fee. If I increase my rates I will no longer charge clients separately for gas and tolls and my pricing would be all inclusive but for those clients who still want to host me and live local they are not getting any benefit since I would hardly have any cost of gas and tolls to begin with, they would just be paying more money. If I charge a separate hosting fee some clients may think I am nickel and diming them. I want to be sensitive to the fact that there is a pandemic and the economy is terrible right now but I also want to make sure that I’m not hurting myself and cutting into my income by having a hosting space. I want to do this in a way that is fair and reasonable for everyone. I would love ideas and feedback both from other pros and from clients.
