This is a topic discussed more than most in this household—MONEY. More specifically when money is discussed, we talk about worth, value and deciding what to charge as an entertainer. In this episode, Athena and Phelyx dish about their rates, how they came up with them and what factors need to be considered when setting your rates in the first place. This episode is not just for entertainers, but for all that are tired of getting paid less than they are worth. This information can be used to raise your current hourly or salary if you are an employee or help you set rates as a business owner.
