To put it a similar way: If you get 5 LinkedIn recruiters reaching out to you a month looking for contractors, and you need a new contract once every 6 months. That's 5*6 = 30 opportunities per contract period. You can only do one, so price your services such that only 29 of the 30 will say you're too expensive (or to play it a bit safer, let's say 9 out of 10).
