It would be dishonest if I were charging $1 and claiming that I am only passing through my cost.  My fees are transparent.  Any search I quote has a search fee and "$1 per page for required copies".  If you don't like the search fee or the copies fee, you don't have to assign me the search.

If any company choses to take their work away over a copy charge, I will say a silent thank you for them helping me avoid their future short-sighted decisions.

Back to work, we have about 30 new searches to enter into our database.  This year has been a little more up and down than 2024; but we will see about a 27% increase in business.  I guess they are liking our pricing model. We will easily surpasse 2000 for 2025. 

Good luck to you.  I'm pretty certain that you will need it.
