Episode description

Do you live in terror of asking for more money? Many freelancers do, and end up undercharging as a result, or charging the same rates for years on end. In this episode we cover why we need to get to grips with raising our rates (regularly) and the best way to do it. We also talk about:

  • Why we're so nervous about raising our rates
  • Why most clients prefer to pay you more than replace you
  • The best times to start thinking about raising your rates
  • The best ways to do it (and why it's not on the phone)
  • And much more!
