My sister told me I was being a doormat with my clients and she was right so I started charging a flat $350 consultation fee upfront on first meetings

I lost 3 weekends in a row doing free walkthroughs for people who ghosted me after so now I ask for the fee via Venmo before I even unlock the car door, has anyone else hit that wall with tire kickers?

@christopher952 I used to think charging upfront was greedy but now I get it.
