Default pricing

I think pricing is the most difficult part of this job. I finally set some standards and decided on a flat rate for birthday parties (up to 15 kids, with 2 entertainment choices) and an hourly rate for more than 15 kids or more than two entertainment choices (with a 2 hour minimum). The very next call didn't really fit either option. She only wanted face painting, no more than 1-1/2 hours, etc. She didn't know the number of kids (80 guests total) - could be under 15 but maybe not. I quoted one price but if there are 15 or fewer, I think she should pay the standard Birthday Party price. :?
