Pricing your services is tricky, and there's a lot of variables that stand in the way. I've seen a crazy difference in the rates that people are charging for their video/ content creation services, and I genuinely think it's down to the fact that there's no decent information out there about pricing and business strategy in this particular situation.
I've been running my own business now for 4 years, and in that time I've been raising my prices every year almost religiously. A lot of people seem to feel like they can't ask for more and instead sell themselves short time and time again, making their time less valuable and damaging the reputation of other like-minded freelancers.
So, in a bid to help everyone who watches this channel who may currently be selling themselves short, or just find the whole pricing thing really scary and confusing, I wanted to make a video that goes into depth about my pricing strategy, and how the rates I charge have changed over the last few years.
Being self-employed in this industry is tough, and I want to make sure that everyone is getting paid the money they deserve for their services.
A lot of people either charge and day rate or an hourly rate, and in this video I wanted to talk about how each method will change the way your business works.
Thanks for watching this video, and I hope it's helpful for you!
