If someone is searching
for the cheapest option,
don’t f*cking send them
to me.
I don’t want those clients.
They’re not loyal.
They don’t care about quality.
They are ungrateful
because they always think
they should be charged
a dollar less.
I don’t send these clients
to the business builders
I love either.
If someone is looking for
a ‘cheap’ cover designer,
I don’t recommend mine.
If someone is looking for
a ‘cheap’ editor,
I stay silent.
“The problem with
that race to the bottom
is that you might win.
Compliance
and commodity pricing
can’t possibly work well
for an independent freelancer,
because there’s always
someone cheaper than you.”
Consider whether or not
you want to attract
customers
who are only interested
in the lowest price.
