When price is your main selling point, youโve turned your skill into a commodity.
Commodities get compared, negotiated down, and replaced fast.

The person who makes the decision feel obvious.
Price wars happen when outcomes are unclear. If a client canโt tell what changes after hiring you, they default to cost.
Clarity beats discounts every time.
The fix isnโt raising your price randomly. Itโs narrowing what you do and owning a specific result.
