Philip, if you can raise your rates, then how is there a maximum income? We raised our rates until supply balanced demand.

- philiphodgen 14y agoI have raised my rates again and again and I am still overworked. (Full disclosure: currently I am $800/hour). The difference is that now I am working on much bigger deals for people who appreciate my value. I cannot tell you how important this is to my general sense of happiness.
- lifeisstillgood 14y agoThat last is the killer - clients who are willing to pay more, turn out not to be fools but actually respect quality and don't waste your time.
- jacquesm 14y agoHow many hours do you book at $800 / hour?
- philiphodgen 14y agoNot too damn many, because of the pressing needs of running a business. If I can hit 100/month I am doing well.
- jacquesm 14y agoThat's still pretty damn good! Congratulations!
