Expert help

It can be frustrating. You call a professional and they come solve the problem — for a fee — and the solution is something simple that you could have done on your own.

But remember: that happens once.

Now, you have a new skill. You have a new way to troubleshoot. You have another simple thing to try before you have to call in the experts.

You didn’t pay a service fee. You paid for a lesson (even if you weren’t looking for a tutor).
