It's a long term game plan. I found that by substantially raising my rates, yes, work was slow in the beginning. But as time and my rep spread, I now find myself at a comfortable level of work, and gre at money as well. If the trajectory keeps going this way I may double my rates again, even with prior clients. If you produce more value for them than they pay, the good clients will pay. Especially after they switch to someone cheaper and don't get the value they are used to.
