Today on the Talkin’ Shop Podcast we’re covering a critical topic that many shops get wrong: how to price your work the right way. We’ll look at why your time holds real value, how to factor that into your rates, and why fair pricing reflects professionalism—not greed. If you want a more sustainable business with less stress, this is one you won’t want to miss.
