“I want a logo”
“Sure, I’ll be done in two days”
“You should charge me less then”
“Okay I’ll be done in two weeks”
“I’ll get someone who can do it quicker and charges less”
“Then…then why did you come here bro?”

Makes so much sense! Great tip for designers and all online creators ❤

OMG thank you for saying this out loud! Pure logic. I’ve been doing freelance work on
Multi Million dollar cars for 29 years now, strictly word of mouth, not the best but there are reasons for that. The people in my world consider me to be the best, and I’m grateful for that, but I’ve honed my skills and have retained Platinum level work while getting much faster. Now I’m in this situation right here, as I used to be just hourly. I did the math and made it fair for both parties but I realized I’m screwing my self, as I’m way more efficient these days. So now I do it this way, per job.
However, the problem I had with this years ago was that the scrubs who do what I do use this method big time, they charge an undeserved top dollar, and then they “work” at breakneck speed so they can possibly do two jobs in a day or just have most of the day off, and their results are meh to average and I didn’t think that was fair to do, even to billionaires. So thank you Mr. Futur for the good advice. Top notch.

Great results cost.
Great results even faster should cost more >> You put the pedal to the metal you get there quicker, but you use more gas.

I seriously struggled with this concept for a long time but now I understand!! 🎉

Pricing per project is almost always best for both parties but there can be a great benefit if you make hourly rate follow you as you increase your quote over the course of your career

[ElusivEnigma]

Could i join one of these sessions? I don't own a business yet but i would like to learn the steps to maintain one

[patrickmurphy]

I would want to pay you for your particular skill + the time it takes you to do it. Just like any skilled person in their field. You aren't being punished. The faster you do it the faster you can move on to the next job.

I think a good reason you wouldn't want to tell someone an hourly rate is because you know its unreasonable. If your hourly rate is reasonable, then there is nothing to hide.

The trouble is prospective clients don’t think like this and they don’t watch these videos and if we talk to them like this guy does they get insulted

[vspatmx]

Omg
That was too brilliant.
I am left enlightened

[davontaej]

I wish you could save shorts. does anyone know the full vid?

[Supermed]

How can I join one of these sessions???

[CyclingMartialartswithMusic]

Its western mentality. That is why your boss when he/she finds out your efficient will give you more work.

[soachanh]

Putting up poorly formed premises to poorly formed formulation of ideas just to sound smart and a bunch of people bite it line & sinker :-))) What a hoot! :-)))

[heaven_.]

I can make you a logo in less than 10 seconds for $10

That guy doesn’t have a right to call himself a businessman
