Today I'm diving into a topic every freelancer faces at some point: should you publicly display your rates, or keep them private? There's no one-size-fits-all answer, so in this episode, I walk you through the pros and cons of each approach.
I'll share why some freelancers choose not to showcase their prices, like keeping flexibility and avoiding price anchoring, as well as the risks of turning away potential clients who assume your services are out of reach. We'll also look at compromise options, like providing price ranges or starting prices, to give clients enough information without locking yourself in.
Ultimately, I want you to think about what works best for your business, communicate clearly with potential clients, and lower barriers so the right people can reach out to you. Let's explore how to make smart decisions about your pricing strategy and client communication, so you can focus on what you do best: creating amazing design work. Stay Creative!
