Why discounts are not good for Wedding Vendors?
Are you looking for a wedding vendor who would give you discounts on every service he offers? It is not a very wise idea then. The most common mistake that most of us indulge into is seeking a discount from our wedding vendors. We try to save some cash so that we can buy a better dress, some more jewelry or maybe spend in our honeymoon.
One should never expect the artists to undercut their values and offer you the same line of services. Often a wedding vendor would consider discounts out the fear of losing a client. But to avail the best services and make your wedding a memorable one, you should least bother about spending a little bit of extra cash.
If you are a wedding vendor reading this post, then you must understand one very important point – never charge less than what you are worth. Give your clients the best you can offer but charge your worth.
It is also important for a wedding vendor to understand that the clients may ask for a break-up price of the entire billing amount. It is a common human psychology. We all want to know the money we are spending is going where and more importantly why. Always present a written estimation with details of how their money will be spent.
Clients demanding discounts are a very common thing. They often ask for same line of services at a lesser price than the other wedding vendors. As a client you are trying to bargain my passion and creativity. Prices can be lowered on tangible things such as decorative used, drapes, tables, flowers and so on. But can the idea be valued with money or should it be said – this idea should cost 10% less?
Always remember as a wedding vendor if you are lowering the price of your services, then you letting others to value your creativity according to their pocket. There are vendors in the market who are carrying on this trend and ruining the industry. There is a small piece of advice for all wedding vendors, especially to those who have just started – never lower your prices in order to get a client. Even if you find it hard to get clients without negotiating with prices, do not compromise and lower your worth.
We basically must respect our work and know its right worth. If we continue to charge what we are worth and under no circumstances compromise with it, the market trend will change and customers will gradually stop demanded for a discount.
