laurentiurobu Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Obviously, somehow a potential client end it up messaging me after they saw my gig and after a few backs and forward it came down to the budget question and then my potential client dropped a number that was about 60% less than my gig, did this happened to you too or it just on the video business?

spaintranslator Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Hello, it happens. You have two options, undersell your services to get your first sale or wait until next potential client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cs_evans Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 @laurentiurobu happens to all of us all the time. 25%, 10%, and even less offers. If you truly know your worth, I recommend sticking to your guns and not underselling your talent. If you don't truly know your worth, I recommend you step away and figure that out, then come back.

prsaiful Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 When creating a gig pricing package, you need to calculate it carefully and budget accordingly. That's what I always do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travisjens Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 It all depends on how much you value yourself and they quality of work that you provide. If you have no other work on order, perhaps on the odd occassion you could take an order at maybe 10% less than normal, but not at 60%, that is rude to ask in the first place. But it all comes down to the individual. 4 hours ago, laurentiurobu said: Obviously, somehow a potential client end it up messaging me after they saw my gig and after a few backs and forward it came down to the budget question and then my potential client dropped a number that was about 60% less than my gig, did this happened to you too or it just on the video business?
