    This is a good story, TheFutur have spoken to Ben about this before, very inspiring... I've recently been quoting what i think is fair for a logo design and people are pushing back. I'm going to stick with it and hopefully they'll be some out there that will respect my work and knowledge and want to build something together.

    • @andrei
      @andrei 6 лет назад

      Keep asking until you find someone who says yes. If you're good enough you will eventually get paid what you're worth. And try to find clients from outside Romania. It's not quite the richest place on Earth. Look for international clients and when you get them, offer them a great collaboration experience so that they come to you again and recommend you to others. In my experience, it's not just how good of a designer you are, it's equally important to be a good communicator. Trust me, stiu ce zic! ;)

    • @aleksandrseleznov8863
      @aleksandrseleznov8863 6 лет назад

      Not enough working with outside country, but you need to choose a rich country like USA that you can start working on projects that will be more than 50 euros. You need also aim people who can pay for you more in USA ( for example).

    Hi, Ben, right now your story is blowing my mind. This is point I am now, upgrading my client to the high paying ones. The ones I have now pay little but their works are really choking me. Ben teach me strategy. I am in Africa, so I always believe that the response to the step you took is gonna have a poor result here (mindset differences). But please I need help in this area. Thanks.

    • @danielcarlson8137
      @danielcarlson8137 6 лет назад

      Bro, I too am in Africa, if your clients don't want to be paying clients, find clients who are willing to pay. Seriously, all that grind for no cash and then making excuses for your clients about mentality hurts only you. Simple question for your clients, if you came to their businesses and consumed a service and did not pay, will they like that?

    @timetravelvictim 6 лет назад

    Seriously, I want to hear more of your story on how you fired your clients. I am in a similar situation and need to either charge them more or get rid of them all together. Especially when a few of them treat me like an employee of theirs with mudane tasks, rather than a consultant for their business. I have emails in draft mode for the past 3 months that explain my new rates. I just haven't pushed the send button out of "fear" of the unknown. I'd like to hear the feelings you experienced and how hard it was. Especially with the clients you have been with for years. Are there any other videos of Ben's story out there?

    • @timetravelvictim
      @timetravelvictim 6 лет назад
