What Sebastian is advocating is a method of hard bargaining that may or may not lead to brand building. What Jacques is advocating is being careful about not crossing the line between bargaining and delusions about your own market worth. It's a perilous balance to maintain if you're playing this game and falling either way might ruin you.

- endtime 16y agoActually, he's not advocating bargaining of any firmness. He's saying that one's personal brand (or dignity, or whatever) should have a minimum price that is not necessarily $0.01. In his case, he's decided that the amount he'd earn with advertising isn't worth the cheapening of his brand it would entail. It's shocking to me how many people commenting here (plus Jacques) totally misunderstood Sebastian's post.

Jacques sees something else. Sebastian sees another paradigm entirely and you see some portion of sebastian's paradigm.
