We love what we do & that can be a problem

Recently stumbled upon a very interesting article written by Andy Budd on how designers are causing their own problems when it comes to project pricing.

We enjoy what we do so much, we’ll do it for free in our spare time. So when somebody says they are willing to pay us—even if it’s less than what we wanted—we feel flattered and eagerly accept the challenge. The desire to create is so strong in most of us, it clouds our judgement.

I know from my personal experience that this has happened to me. The article continues to explain that you as a designer should differentiate yourself by your quality of work instead of simply your price. Give it a nice read through, if you’re a designer it would definitely be worth your time.
