Two days ago, I made my hair in my neighbor’s place and she left for her house because she was in a hurry. Today when she came back to the shop, I asked her how much money she wants to collect for an ordinary all back and she told me a thousand naira.

I asked why and she was giving flimsy excuses but it’s sad because I give her discount anytime she wants to buy something from me. It’s getting me annoyed and I already vowed not to make my hair from her again. Is it a good idea?

In my view, I think it is not good to give discounts for the service. For the reason that we need to incorporate the principle of "Business is a business." Sometimes you can offer promos at random, but not always. It is a part of marketing strategy.

I understand your plight but you would have asked her of the price and bargain first before commencement

Oh well, I didn’t know and that’s because all back is usually five hundred naira everywhere so I just felt it will be the same price until I was shocked

If you give discounts to your neighbours, that is nepotism and shouldn't be part of business. It can breed jealousy amongst your customer base.

Hmm this is another point and one problem there is that they will always continue to buy it around the price that you have sold it to them because you already gave them discount earlier

I think it's good to give them some discount and this way you can have a good relationship with your neighbors and ultimately this does help a lot in life
