Much depends on the volume of work they can pitch your way, and the
price floor. If they pitch you so much high end work that you're
still working at $100 an hour net (gross $200 an hour) then its a good
thing. If you're not getting tearass volume of highprice work .....
no good.

There are retail situations where high overhead can be absorbed by
ultra high volume and high prices (ie a shop stall at Disneyland) and
other times when its just a disaster. You'll need to investigate
further.

And remember, if you DO have high volume and high price floor, you
MUST be able to speedsling. If you have to do $200 of henna per hour
to make the numbers come out right, you have to be able to DO $200 of
henna hour after hour. And, because you're asking people to pay
upmarket prices, you have to deliver upmarket quality at that speed!
(Pressure? Take a big whiff!)
