On Criteria More Important Than Unit Price
In this episode, our host, an active freelance Web creator, shares their real-world perspective on the criteria they prioritize beyond just "unit price" when selecting projects.
Why you shouldn't judge projects solely by compensation.
When you're offered work, compensation is of course important. However, if you choose projects based only on price, you might end up painting yourself into a corner. In reality, there are some jobs that, even with a slightly lower rate, are much easier to work on. I will delve into the personality's personal decision-making criteria regarding this.
Communication with clients directly impacts work quality.
Misunderstandings during the production process are a major burden. If requirements are vague and you're left guessing, unnecessary work and mental fatigue pile up, often making the project cost-ineffective when calculated by hourly wage. To avoid such trouble, I share tips on client management and cues I personally look for.
The "exchanges" behind the scenes might be crucial.
In the middle of the episode, the host brings up a specific situation to highlight the importance of gauging how easy a job will be to handle. The insights into "how to choose work" from this segment are a must-listen. The conversation goes even deeper, so please tune in to the full episode to hear the rest.
