330 - 5-Minute Mentoring: The Problem With Friends And Family Discounts
Show Notes

As consumers, most of us enjoy getting a discount and saving a little money whenever we can.  A free stack of pancakes at IHOP?  Sign me up!

I have a friend who is a big bargain-hunter - he hits up every thrift store in every town he visits in the hopes of finding a treasure.  And he finds a lot of them!

But as a business owner, discounts are a different story…especially if there are people around you who ask for or expect them!  It can really put you in a tough place as a business owner.

On today’s episode of 5-Minute Mentoring, we’re talking about how, when, if, and to whom you should give discounts on your art.  So take a few minutes and listen!
