Pinaden ,

Great Info!!

While I have not ever thought of starting my own genealogy business, the information provided still offers a wealth of information on different aspects in genealogy that could help in personal research, while offering advice great tips for inclusion into your research process, and especially if you are considering a new business in all kinds of different genealogical fields, including research, genetics, and forensics, to name a few. I found this podcast late, so found it already discontinued, but still learned a great deal from the content.

Hi,
I just found you and I am thoroughly enjoying this podcast. Maybe you have discussed this recently, but could you discuss the structure of how to charge and discuss the range.
Many thanks.
