Heads up: freelancing used to be about building relationships. Now, it's about who can work cheapest, and that's a dangerous game.

That race to the bottom is real, but plenty of clients still pay well for real skill.

Yeah, and it's not just about skill either. Linda_murphy is right that good clients pay for quality, but a lot of people forget to show their value upfront. You get what you pitch for, so if you lead with a low price, that's all they'll ever see. Gotta be clear about what you do and why it's worth it, or you're just another cheap option in the inbox.
