When I first started I charged $40/hour and met a developer who was working for a new client who told me I was crazy, that I was underpaying myself and that by charging too little I was giving reasons to clients not to take me seriously. I then started charging 100$/hour and I got better results when looking for clients, ended up being more respected by those same clients and was less overworked so happier overall. Over the last 10 years, I've steadily increased that rate until it's now 300$/hour. I don't charge that all clients, in some cases I worked for a lot less in exchange for equity (which has proven to be a very good idea) but having a high rate allows me to have the flexibility to offer that with some clients. |
