Archived business text

Since I never got any business, and doubt I'd ever make enough to pay for a license, I have opted to serve entirely on a volunteer basis until further notice.

Therefore the following text has been removed:

Recordings & Transcriptions

Available upon request at extra cost.

Session length - A decent reading takes about an hour, not including meditative preparation.

Rate - $40 per hour rounded up to the nearest 1/4 hour at the end of the session. I no longer use the sliding scale rate calculator. Continuation of your services is dependant on your payment standing. If you have any billing questions, please bring them up before the reading. Payment is by mail.

Discounts - 30% pre-scheduling discount! The schedule cancellation fee without 24 hour notice is 200%, due at your next session, (Since I might have had to arrange my whole day around you). Make sure that I send a confirmation for either (email receipt certificates do not qualify).

Desperate cases - Free emergency readings depending on your situation. (email or call ahead to explain your need)

Free clients - Free scheduled readings for professional psychics, counselors, and teachers related to your work.

  I will also barter for anything on my wishlist.

Additional Services

Recordings - Emailed session voice recordings or snail mailed cassettes - add $5.

Transcripts - Web-posted or emailed session transcript - add $20 per hour.

Gift certificates - Free

Ask about my individually crafted essential fragrance oils made from the best natural oils produced in Egypt. I can create a recipe based on a tarot reading or many other methods.

Extensive administration, meditations, rituals, research, card artwork, sermons, and website maintenance are also being covered by my fees. Keep in mind, I could be making $80k/yr instead, automating people out of jobs with my computer skills (or at least migrating them to telemarketing and watching parked cars).

Other independent and organized internet psychics are charging $90-120 an hour. 900-line phone psychics typically charge $3/min or $180/hr. Sadly, the actual psychics often only make 25¢/min or $12/hr for occasional calls and a lot of unpaid waiting by the phone which they must answer immediately (so they can't even cook or paint). When I was employed as one, my supervisor demonstrated her own psychic abilities to me over the phone during my testing. (Hi Cathy, thanks for the start.) I can't vouch for her other 900-line staff however. I have not yet seen any internet sites that make good on their enticements of free live readings. Some look like they did to build business but have since prospered or depleted their commitment.

My deck will be for sale when I find a good printer.

(from the disclaimer page:)

Delivery of service -  I make no promises as to when I will be available 'on-call'. If an emergency of any sort interrupts our session from my side, you may elect to continue the session when possible or not be charged for the session. If an interruption occurs on your side, you will be charged for all interruptions of less than 12 minutes, and for any time in which I am put 'on hold' waiting to resume our session. Pre-scheduled sessions - In the event I can not be available for a pre-scheduled session I will inform you as soon as possible for rescheduling and you will be exempted from one future cancellation fee. If our session is interrupted for more than 12 minutes per hour of prescheduled time you will not be billed for that session. If an interruption occurs on your side, I will try to reschedule a continuation of our session. You will be billed for all interruptions of less than 12 minutes or those for which I am put on hold. (Meaning I must wait, not involving myself in other activities because I have not been notified when the reading should resume.) Readings vary in strength; I have knowledge and skills in counseling that can help you even when a reading is floundering, but I will let you know if I'm not getting much from the cards, in which case either of us are free to cut the session short and reschedule it's continuation. In such cases you will only be billed for the portion of the session performed.
