What could your business be like if you were no longer chained
to the billable hour? Do you think your business model is even
feasible without the billable hour? Does making the leap away from
hourly billing sound terrifying? Stupid? Suicidal?
Jonathan Stark is a former software developer who is on a mission
to rid the world of hourly billing. He wrote Hourly Billing Is
Nuts, hosts of the Ditching Hourly podcast, and writes a daily
newsletter on pricing for independent professionals.
We've talked about the importance of being an expert, and how it's
less risky than being a generalist, and we expand on that this
week, and how offering fixed prices positions you as the expert
who's seen this before.
This helps you differentiate yourself and your work, and avoid a
race to be the cheapest option to a client.
We'll also talk about the three important questions you need to
every new potential clients to answer
Why this?
Why now?
Why me?
This only scratches the surface of our discussion - I'm a big fan
of Jonathan's work and I really hope you stay with us til the end -
this chat could literally change the way you run your business.
