@WordCampLanc @bethsoderberg @JosephHHoward @leedrozak @TaraClaeys @charlie3 “Ask people you trust to see if your prices are right or if you should be charging more. One client keeps saying to charge him more. If you aren’t sure about the work, don’t take it on. Refer out.” @bethsoderberg

@WordCampLanc @bethsoderberg @JosephHHoward @leedrozak @TaraClaeys @charlie3 What have you done to have confidence in your pricing? How do you not undervalue yourself?

“Always charge more. Difference between $1,000 website vs $5,000 website is price tag. Try it and see what happens.” @TaraClaeys

@WordCampLanc @bethsoderberg @JosephHHoward @leedrozak @TaraClaeys @charlie3 Last question, when you are working what is the music or the sound?

“Silence if task is hard, podcasts if task is easy” @bethsoderberg

“Podcasts while walking dog or in car, not working. Listen to lo-fi hip hop (youtube.com/watch?v=bebuiaSKtU4) when I work ” @JosephHHoward
