Strong but fair margins driven by consistent execution — including product quality, expertise, reliability, responsiveness, and strong relationships with buyers.
Only when the client asks and there is a compelling reason, such as a large-volume purchase. Otherwise, you don’t lower your prices.
No. Pricing should be based on understanding the client’s problem and the work required to solve it. This makes fit and execution the focus of the decision, with price weighed against the problem being solved.
If price becomes the primary focus, the solution, work required, and expected results become secondary. A relationship based on cost alone places you at constant risk of being replaced. That position is unsustainable, and your should exit.
