📱 eBook en inglés YOUR FREELANCE RATE IS TOO LOW (AND YOU KNOW IT)

Most freelancers set their rates by looking at what others charge, then undercutting them slightly. This is the fastest path to burnout, resentment, and a business that barely survives. You know your rate is too low when you are working constantly but still struggling financially, when clients treat you like a commodity, and when every project feels like a grind instead of a partnership. The problem is not your skill. It is your pricing strategy.
This book reveals the psychology and strategy behind pricing freelance services so you earn what you deserve without constantly hunting for new clients. You will learn why hourly billing often traps you in a cycle of trading time for money, and how to shift toward value-based pricing that reflects the impact of your work. The book walks you through calculating your real costs, including taxes, software, downtime, and the hidden expenses most freelancers ignore. You will discover how to position your services so clients perceive premium value, how to handle pricing conversations without feeling awkward, and how to raise your rates with existing clients without losing them.
The book addresses the emotional barriers that keep freelancers undercharging: fear of rejection, imposter syndrome, and the belief that you need more experience before you can charge more. You will see real examples of pricing strategies across different industries, from writing and design to consulting and development. You will learn how to create tiered packages that give clients clear choices, how to use retainers and project-based pricing to stabilize your income, and how to spot red-flag clients who will never pay what you are worth.
