I founded a bridesmaid for hire business and made the mistake of not immediately setting a price. Here are 5 ways to figure out how much to charge when you start a business no one else has. (by JenGlantz)

wundervisuals/Getty ImagesWhen she was first starting out, she hadn't set a price — and said on live TV that she would work with any budget. That was, in her words, a "major fail."

I was asking potential customers what their budget was and how much they would pay for this service, one that didn't exist before my company created it. So on TV, I scratched my head, let out a few "ums" and said that we don't have a standard price and work with any budget.

I started asking over 20 brides how much they would pay for the first of its kind service I created. I explained how many hours of work they'd get and the details of the package and then asked what they thought was a fair price. The average that they gave was where I decided to start my pricing offerings."You simply ask 10-20 potential customers what they would pay for"X" .
