Hello all, I'm a new member, so this is my first post.
I run a smaller business and only do gardening maintenance (no lawn cutting), and currently do all the work myself, but as I'm expanding I'm finding a need to hire help to meet my customer's needs.
My question is... Is it typical to charge less per hour for hired help? My help would only be doing labor such as weeding and cleaning up. Which I do anyways. It's hard for me to justify charging a customer the same rate for someone with much less experience, who may be slightly slower, and isn't doing trimming/pruning and other detail work.
Should I be charging my usual foreman rate, and less for others?
Thanks for any advise.
