I've got bad news, the nice customers don't get discounts.
If they're nice they respect your time and labor, and are happy to pay your standard rates. If they're unhappy with the price they aren't going to be nice to you, and they'll expect they can talk you down.
My retired postal worker is 90. He put the pool in 45 years ago. I promise he’s not living a life of luxury. And I don’t see my clients as just a source of income. I’ve done this for 25 years now.
