How much is your work worth?
Question:
How much is your work worth?
Answer:
It depends on who you ask.
Like beauty, value is in the eye of the beholder.
The value of anything - absolutely ANYTHING - is completely subjective.
What something is worth is different to everyone.
In a financial transaction between a buyer and a seller, only the buyer can decide if what the seller is selling is worth the stated price.
What the seller thinks, wants, needs, or wishes is not relevant.
So...
When you find yourself in a sales conversation with someone who clearly doesn’t value what you do, you might as well end the conversation and instead redirect your efforts to finding someone who does.
Yours,
