I don't know this it my first time posting here and a lot of these forums have been very helpful. I guess I do get discouraged sometimes.

You are dealing with your own mindset as an issue.
Obviously, everyone in San Francisco is poor.
No one there drives a Lexus, Caddy, Porche, or BMW because they can't afford it.
People all live in the streets because they can't afford mortgages on their homes or condos.
No one sends their kids to private schools.
There is an abundance of money in the world.
Your problem is SCARCITY THINKING and that's who you are attracting
as clients.
Run - do not walk - and buy The Secret to Money Is Having Some by Stuart Wilde.
Read and devour it.
And then...
Raise your prices.
You have created this problem. You can solve it.
I watch Sara just keep raising her prices. And no one says no.
And waiting for the day she tells me yoga lessons are $500 an hour.
Note to Sara: Don't get any ideas.
Peace.
