[David Sandusky]

My RSS Feed is a Thinker and Has Just Posted the Following:

The closer you are to the point of need, the more you can charge.

Pizza at the airport costs five times more than pizza on the way to the airport.

Tax audit services in the middle of an SEC investigation cost triple what they cost before one.

Scalped tickets cost more than ones bought in advance, by mail.

Emergency towing in a strange town costs more too.

The single easiest way to increase your fees is to get closer to thepain. It's interesting to note that no large-scale advertising venturesare closer to the pain than the Yellow Pages or Google. Both of whichare insanely successful.
