A short YouTube monologue (Eric Deeran) arguing that undercharging clients undermines service quality and sustainability. The speaker and interlocutors share anecdotal evidence that charging higher rates enables better work, funds teams, and avoids resentment; they assert that not charging enough is not serving the client.
It's pretty mind boggling. And my, my family is like, what the freak are you doing? I'm like, I don't know. I'm charging what I'm worth, man. I'm like, I don't know. It's, it's. Eric told me to. And it works. Eric told me to. They paid. I don't know what happened after that. It's like, yeah, yeah. Well, the other thing too is like, you can do a better job for them just because you're charging more. Like, you know, like, how good of a job can you really do when you're charging to 3K? You can't. Yeah, well, you almost build resentment too, right? So it's like you are not serving the client at the end of the day if you're not charging them as much as you possibly can. I know for some people, like, oh, I don't want to charge. It's like, dude, how are you going to pay for your team? How are you going to pay for all these things? How are you going to give the client a good experience if you're not charging them any money?
