One major mistake many startup business make is to undercut the competition by TOO much. Don't set your pricing too low from the start, then realise you have to raise prices just to survive... returning clients will remember what they paid last time.

Consider trying high value/low volume rather than low value/high volume. You never know, you may find enough people who are willing to pay that $300 to get their comp fixed.
