Have you had potential clients tell you you're too Have you had potential clients tell you you're too expensive? 😣 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here's where you might be getting stuck 👇🏾 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. Your target audience. You need to talk to people who don't just see what you do as a 'nice-to-have' but a 'need to have.' ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. Your positioning. What will investing in your service *really* do for your customer? How will it transform their lives? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 3. Your mindset. Impostor syndrome is a distraction. You know you deliver bomb-ass work and get great results for your clients. Don't let your mind play tricks on you or keep talking to people who make you feel small. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ P.S. If you're not sure if you're charging too much or too little, you need my freelance rate calculator.

It's totally free! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Click the link in my bio to access the tool and please leave a comment below or send me a DM and let me know what you think! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ P.S. don't forget to save this post and share it with any freelancers you know!
