EP 111: Five Sins You Must Avoid If You're Looking For More Money From Your Clients (and What To Do Instead)

September 08, 2022

How do you get a client to spend more money with you, give you more work, and basically give you a raise?


When I googled this question, everything that came up was advice for how to negotiate a raise from your boss in the corporate world.


And while there were some decent pieces of advice in the articles I found, it doesn’t translate that well to people like us, who run our own businesses and are looking to get a raise from our clients.


As somebody who has lots of clients, and who also pays lots of contractors, freelancers, and employees, I’m sharing my perspective on the best way to get your clients to give you more work, and/or pay you more money.


Tune into this episode to hear:


  • Why you should keep your personal life out of your ask
  • How to find simple ways to add value to your work when you’re asking for more money 
  • Why inflation is not a sales pitch
  • Why asking for more work or money is often best handled over the phone or video chat
  • The five things you should be doing when you’re asking for more work, money, or both
