I already implement a minimum 1 hour charge.

The lower you charge the more customers you will get, the higher the less...you need a medium point to maximize profits

Are you talking about my base charge or after hours? My base is already $45/hr and I have a pretty decent customer base so that is not as much a concern. I'm asking how much I should charge for going out after hours (later than 8pm) when someone can't wait for an appointment.

If you're paid hourly at a company, after hours work is usually 1.5 times your normal rate. I think that's a good starting point.

To make a lot of money, you gotta charge a lot of money
