My very first customer was the boss of a friend of mine. I asked my friend what his boss was willing to pay. "It doesn't matter," my friend replied, "Just charge him 50% more than what you really want and let him negotiate you down. As long as he thinks he's getting something from you, he'll be happy, and you'll get whatever you want." Great advice.
