Wow that is quite the rate at $25/hr
A few weeks ago in Beijing for a very good [ed. registered] guide plus a driver and 9 passenger mini-bus (which was stocked with bottled water and snacks for 3 days) I paid $10/hr (actually 800RMB/$100 for the day but they had no restrictions on how many hours we were out so the days were over 8 hours)
You may want to rethink your rate

When I went on vacation in Qingdao last year, me and my friends paid 150 RMB to hire a regular taxi for the entire day. 8am until 6pm.
That's not even $20 total for 10 hours.
Now maybe you're Dalian tour service is quite good. But I'm sure if you offered that price to any Chinese person touring Dalian, they would be very surprised by how expensive it is.
Does your service include transportation?
I'm curious...

25$( 200yuan) per hour plus I think the other advert was for 100$(800yuan) to find house/ apartments for expatriates, does this guy think we don't know the rates and are made of money. I think you need to go back to the drawing board and revise your rates downwards dramatically. A change of name would also be in order because you've certainly alienated most of your prospective customers on this website by thinking we are cash cows to be milked.

franc,
Good to see your price is coming down from $25 to $15 but instead of editing your original post why don't you reply to the posts already in the thread to explain why you should get $25 or $15 or whatever you are charging now? btw $15
