Backstory
I posted a Twitter thread summarising my expertise in pricing freelance projects and it went viral.
At the time of writing, the thread has received 37,100 likes and 11,200 retweets.
My message has been seen over 3,000,000 times by people.
Its content has been re-worked and re-posted around the world.
I’ve had countless messages of thanks and praise for sharing my super-condensed version of 11 years+ in pricing freelance work.
I’d already thought about writing a book on pricing for freelancers, but this response was the catalyst. I had to write this book.
I’ve made it my mission to understand pricing deeply to get paid what I’m worth throughout my career and this makes me a great living from freelancing year on year.
