How do you go about pricing your services for profit?
Communicating cost increases to your clients aren't the easiest yet it has to be done as a business continues to grow. Thoughts?

I think staying on top of your expenses overhead/operating/labor costs and crafting a good man hour rate from that coupled with being as detailed and thorough as possible when creating quotes is best for ensuring profitability.
We have always stuck to our guns in terms of pricing when it comes to quotes to clients no surprises costs but it works in our industry, if there is something that is outside the scope of our quote that comes up during a project it is quoted additionally so there are no surprises. Our business thrives on re-occurring jobs with our clients whether it is weekly, monthly or annually.
