Stick to your price. It is worth it in the long run.
I had a guy call me several years ago (1995, I think) and at that time I was charging $20 for a basic wash/vac/dress tires. He told me they had 4 cars for me to wash about every 3 weeks. The guy who was doing it just stopped showing up and didn`t return their calls. Anyway he asked what I charged and I told him $20 and he said the other guy charged them $15 per car. I told him with the time to properly wash 4 cars I would have to charge $80 total and that if they had me come out one time, they would see that another $5 per car was worth it. I`ve been washing their cars for about 8 years now....and not just every 3 weeks, but about every 10 days or so, meaning not only are they paying me more (and yes, I have gone up to $25-35 per vehicle on washes now) per vehicle than the other guy, but more often also!
If you feel your work is worth $25 per vehicle, stick with it.
