Heads up: freelancing used to be about building relationships. Now, it's about who can work cheapest, and that's a dangerous game.

That race to the bottom is real, but plenty of clients still pay well for real skill.

Yeah, and it's not just about skill either. Linda_murphy is right that good clients pay for quality, but a lot of people forget to show their value upfront. You get what you pitch for, so if you lead with a low price, that's all they'll ever see. Gotta be clear about what you do and why it's worth it, or you're just another cheap option in the inbox.

Spot on, Simon. People miss that your first price sets the tone for the whole relationship, not just that one job.
