Over the last few years, my attitude has changed dramatically. I used to rail against low-ball clients until I realized that they were only offering the market rate set by low-ball talent... and that sometimes good enough was good enough. If someone offers me a gig for 10% of my usual rate, I'm not even going to waste my time getting annoyed. A polite reply stating my rates and the incompatibility of our relative business models (or whatever) and move on. I will not try and educate them. However, a VO who tells me he only charges $50 for a three-minute web video is likely to receive a quick kick to the nether regions... or the verbal equivalent at least _________________ Bish a.k.a.

We're worth every single $, £, or € we BELIEVE we are worth. Sometimes it's hard to collect on that. Other times it's easy. When your belief meets the buyers belief, that means business. _________________ www.melissaeXelberth.com
