Everyone is looking for a damn bailout! Thank you U.S. Government. Sure I could have told the customer to kiss my ass but with a small business that is trying to survive and having shed several customers already I would rather have a customer at $275/month than a customer at $0/month. Of course at some point I wouldn’t have done it, say anything below $250, but regardless I’m starting to hate this process. This is just one example, I could go on. When is this going to end? Is it ever going to end?[/quote]
You are confused. Your customers aren’t looking for a bailout. They are merely negotiating a reasonable price with you based on market forces and other factors. This is actually the free market at work and is quite the opposite of a bailout.
Edit:For future reference, bailouts always involve the money of a non-involved third party. Here, it’s just you and your customers. Since there is no money from an uninvolved third-party (e.g., taxpayer) at risk, the scenario you describe in no way resembles a bailout.
