The Concept of Fees and Prices

Napoleon Hill once wrote, "There is no standard price on ideas.  The creator of ideas makes his own price, and if he is smart, gets it!"

We are all entitled to be compensated for the value that the results of our efforts create for our customers, so don't get squeamish about asking to be paid.  Some people seem to think 'money', and even more often 'profit', is a dirty word.

There's nothing dirty in making a profit - Doctors profit from our illnesses and accidents. Professors and Teachers profit from the ignorance of their students, and Farmers profit from our hunger.

Profits get a bad press because many people are unclear where they come from.  Profits come from taking risks - Entrepreneurs have to give long before they receive.

If both parties in a transaction make a handsome profit - The purchaser gets a good return on their investment in the price and the provider does the same based on their investment in being able to deliver whatever they deliver - then all is well.  It's Win-Win!
