Do I charge less to get the business? Am I working too cheaply and being taken advantage of? Do I charge more to create a higher perceived value? Then you get the people that think you should work for free. You know, the emails, "Let me run something by you." As soon as you quote them a rate, they disappear. Attorneys and accountants don't work for free, why should consultants? Thanks for the post! Pricing is a tricky area. Do I charge less to get the business?

I also wish the prices were just stated to make it simple. But life isn't simple, is it? Especially the freelance life. :-) Thought you might like to know I included you in my fictional link love in my latest post. Smiles, Michele This is an excellent post!
