When my CPA recently sent me an email saying he was raising my monthly fee, what do you think I said when I emailed back?
I said, “Thank you, Mike. You deserve it. Congratulations! And thanks for being a great accountant and adviser.”
Sometimes, price increases from vendors are justified not just because of the rising cost of doing business, the skyrocketing price of gas, or other factors. Great service providers get to raise prices regularly and their customers could care less about having to pay more. How many of your vendors would you say that about? How many of your clients would say that about you?
