I think a £5 rate is a good idea for one particular demographic we
should be aiming at: students.

The other demographic is educated persons who, one hopes, have used
their education to secure a pretty good job and I feel they could
easily meet, say, £20.

Suggestion: reduce it to £6, then it's the same as the present cheap
rate and doesn't carry the impression of a fire sale.
