I am a solo practitioner, I don't think my current clients would appreciate it very much if I jumped up my rates by 20%, I think I would lose quite a chunk of them from shock! Telling them I have 5 star ratings on various websites wouldn't make them feel any better about it. How else would they know about these 5 star ratings unless I tell them or display something at my office? Typically, I raise my rates by about 10% every 2 or 3 years. Hmmm… interesting idea.
