Absolutely. We are all very experienced and therefore very efficient. In some professions it is readily accepted that we will pay for the qualifications or many years of experience, like with Solicitors, Barristers, Consultants [medical] or even more humble or comparable practitioners like Plumbers or Electricians. But some still think ‘it’s only gardening/mowing’ and therefore undervalue what we do. It isn’t much of a problem really though, as we don’t work for those people. we work for those who do value what we do, there are plenty of them out there. The client gets to know us, trust us and often ‘learns’ to value what we do, as they see us in action and gain the understanding. We in effect, educate them.
...and also because I bought and maintain this big efficient mower/ hedgecutter/ sprayer/ tripod ladder/leaf blower... (delete as appropriate)
It's like the jeweller who cuts diamonds. Hitting it with a hammer: £10. Knowing where to hit it: £10,000
