fair, no-nonsense rate

$88/hr

That's less than what the average plumber charges!
(Nothing against plumbers, of course.)

And less than my own competition, too!

Compare:

• Geek Squad (Best Buy)
  $159 for a single hour of in-home training
• Friendly Computers
  $97+/hr, on up to $147/hr
• Computer Troubleshooters
  $95/hr
• Tech24
  $1.99 per minute, for annoying over-the-phone service! Are you kidding me? That's $120/hr!

...and those are just the places that disclose their prices on their web sites. Anyone who doesn't is probably worried their rates are going to scare you away!

Makes me wonder if I should be charging more. Though I do take pride when my customers ask me "Is that all?" when they're writing me a check.

additional perks

• no visitation charge
  The competition often charges $25 or more just for walking in the door. CompuSmile charges nothing.
• no travel charge
  If you live in St. Louis or St. Charles County, my driving time is free.
• a mere 1/2 hour minimum
  Most competitors require at least a full-hour appointment.
• 1/4-hour increments
  The competition usually charges you in bulky 1-hour chunks. With CompuSmile, if your appointment lasts (say) 75 minutes, then you pay for only 75 minutes, not 2 full hours.
• extremely flexible schedule
  Whether you need me on a Tuesday night or a Saturday day, I can make myself available, with no increase in rate.
