Full Version: Do you show pricing on your site?

I'm thinking about showing my prices online, besides my 'starting' price, which is more of just a teaser, as no one ever purchases just that package. So, I wanted to start a poll to see what the rest of you do. Please share your strategy behind what you do. My strategy is so only get serious inquiries. I'm rethinking this, though, because I know what I would do if I came across my site, I would move on to someone who had pricing listed. smile.gif

For weddings we show a "Starting at" price. For portraits we have the full price list available.

No, I want people to look at the images, first, and not the prices. If you have a "pricing" menu item on your site, they'll probably click there first before they ever even see the images, say "too expensive" and click off the site. I'd rather they fall in love with the images, and once they're hooked, then hit them with sticker shock.

Also, if they contact me and we're not in the same budget, I can then refer them to one of my friends, rather than have the lead float off into the ether. Same reason I don't publish our list of booked dates. I want them to contact me so I can refer a friend if we're booked.
