For Hourly Rates, This is Your Punishment

Should you charge by the hour or by the project? If you've ever struggled with this question, you're not alone. But here's the truth: you might be asking the wrong question entirely. In this episode, Preston and Clay dive deep into pricing strategy with a question from Lanya, revealing why hourly pricing punishes you for being good at what you do—and introducing the game-changing concept of value-based pricing. Learn how to have conversations with clients that uncover the true worth of your work, why asking about impact matters more than counting hours, and how solving a $300,000 problem for $10,000 isn't sleazy—it's simply understanding your value.
