Thank you for your contribution to the topic at hand. My question to you is, 
if you charge your normal rate for the first piano, and it took you 30 minutes 
to tune, then how much do you charge per hour to do the other tunings? Is you 
hourly rate the same as your tuning rate? Do you charge a full hour for only 
a partial hour? 

In other words, it looks like you might be doing the same thing I do, except 
in reverse. Instead of charging full boat for the first tuning, and then by 
the hour, I give the discount up front. Looks to me we're winding up with the 
same amount of money in our pocket.
