I have been both a freelancer as well as working in-house at a printing company as graphic designer since 2009. Since then I have seen things slide and slide and slide regarding how clients treat our line of work, how they consider our worth to be.
I am finding it increasingly more difficult to obtain work even with my high-end portfolio website and heaps of previous content clients.
For example, I was told this earlier today from a potential client; 'Thanks Tom, however I will be working with someone else, as your quote is much higher than others..'
Now at least they were nice about it, but my quote was even on the verge of what I would consider me underselling myself.
Have any of the suers of this forum noticed such things, and what can be done to get around it?
