New Pricing Packages!
Posted by Michelle Myers on Tuesday, December 11, 2012
The holidays are here and the end of the semester is near! I'd like to take this time to thank all of my parents and students who have helped me grow my business this school semester. I have been wildly successful increasing my client base, regularly tutoring 3-4 students a day, 5 days a week. With this growth it has become necessary to add more structure.
Next semester, starting in January, I will be introducing pricing packages designed to save money by buying more of my time at once. It will also have the added benefit of not having to write checks every week or visit an ATM before each session, and it will allow me to better deal with rescheduling and cancellations. I tried to design packages to fit current students so I could recommend a package for each student that would either keep prices the same or reduce them. Here are the basics:
- 8 hour package: $220 (8 hrs of my time to be used within a month, discount of $2.50 per hour)*
- 4 hour package: $120 (4 hrs of my time to be used within a month, current price)*
- 5 hour "as needed" package: $185 (5 hours of my time to be used within a semester, flexibility with no weekly commitment)
- pay-per-session: $40 (1 hr of my time to be used at any scheduled time, no commitment whatsoever)
*The 8- and 4-hour packages have the option to add additional sessions as needed within the month for $30 per hour.
Packages will be paid for at the beginning of each month and expire after 30 days; they will need to be renewed every 30 days. The "as needed" semester package can be paid for at any time during a semester and will expire at the end of that semester. Multiple "as needed" packages may be purchased within a semester, but it would be economical to switch to a month package instead. Unused hours for any package cannot be rolled over into the next period.
Thanks again to everyone who has helped me along the way. Check out my other blogs for more information about the new structure, including my cancellation and rescheduling policy.
Happy Holidays!
