Now here's my question... Why on God's green earth would you want to work for less? If your work is as good as the others in your area, why wouldn't you want the same money? I have a guy do them for me and I mark his price up almost double. I pick up the finished product and make money. If you start low, you will have a hard time going up without loosing business, been there done that. I can see being slightly lower but don't sell yourself short. Building a client base is a farse, espacially in taxidermy, where the average hunter gets 1-2 deer mounted in a lifetime. Do good work, charge a good wage and live good.
