As a small business owner, I understand the importance of meeting tight deadlines and accommodating last-minute requests. However, in order to prioritize and expedite these rush orders, I charge a 15% rush fee for orders placed less than 3 days in advance. This fee helps cover the additional costs and resources required to fulfill these urgent requests in a timely manner.
Key points:
1. Rush orders require extra attention and resources to meet tight deadlines.
2. The 15% rush fee helps offset the additional costs associated with expediting orders.
3. By charging a rush fee, I am able to prioritize and fulfill urgent requests without compromising on quality or service.
4. Planning ahead and placing orders in advance can help avoid rush fees and ensure a smoother production process.
