1. Under-pricing
How do you know if you are underpricing?
If you do good work but you never lose a bid then your prices are too low.
be careful about charging by the hour when you don’t have to
you are actually penalizing yourself for getting faster at your work!
some jobs require considerable experience and expertise while taking little time to execute. As the old carpenter said when his customer complained at the price for fixing a creaky floor board
“That’s $1 for the nail, $999 for knowing where to put it”.
2. Over-committing
When one client takes all your time that is a boss and you have a job, not a client and freelancer relationship.
