First real numbers after 2 weeks doing subscription audits

Started offering $49 flat subscription audits to people in my building's group chat two weeks ago. 4 people said yes, 3 actually followed through with giving access. Found and cancelled a combined $187/month in stuff they'd forgotten about. Made $147 so far (one guy didn't pay yet, following up). Not life-changing but it's basically free money for maybe 3 hours of total work. Curious if anyone's tried charging more or bundling it with something else.

$49 seems low once you factor in the awkward 'please give me access to your email' conversation. I'm doing mine at $75 and haven't had pushback yet.

Depends who you're pitching. $49 is an easy yes for a friend, $75 might make a stranger think twice this early when nobody's heard of this as a service yet.

Might bump mine up for the next round, good point. The access conversation is honestly the hardest part of the whole pitch.

Following this thread because I'm skeptical the demand is really there past your own social circle. Curious if anyone's landed a client who wasn't a friend or family member yet.
