"Charge what you're worth."
You've probably heard this.
But...
If you're a newbie in freelancing, is it okay to immediately charge higher?
How high is high?
How much should you charge for your specific service?
How are you going to ask for a higher rate?
Watch this replay!

already watching po!Thanks much!
Watching napo sis
Watching na din po
No audio po
meron nmn pong audio 🙂
Wala pa ring audio?
meron po audio
Thank you coach Akhimi. Agreed!
As a newbie, you can't gauge/identify your "value" yet
tama mommy.
For me it’s not about the rate. It’s all about the skills na ma-aacquire during the term of employment dahil di naman lahat matututunan sa eskwelahan. You have to apply all the learnings and skills then may maeencounter kang mga problem along the way then you’ll learn from it.
Love this
Watching from Commonwealth QC
Thank you sis Aurea Ladao Samonte
Skills + Confidence
For newbie, mas madali po bang makahanap ng entry jobs sa freelance platforms or social media?
$12/hr kasi may experience plus over-deliever and over-communicate.
Thank you po sa golden advise na yan coach akhimi
Great idea!
Well said, Coach Akhimi 🙂
Agree! Galing Ms. Akhimi
Great advice missAkhimi!
Once you've gained experience then you have the basis for your price but for those who haven't had a client yet it is best to stick to the VAB advice of $7/hour
impressive yung answer ni ms. Marites. Lodi talaga.
listening..
evaluation
Thank you coaches for the advices... indeed! quality comes with a price
Totoo po yan! Be confident! Newbie here but able to charge and get my dream starting rate
Good evening everyone watching from Calamba
Ganda Ms. Maritess! Thanks for that!
All noted po Mam Marites
Sa totoo lang madami satin nahihiya mag ask ng kung pede mag taas ng rate kaya ang nigagawa ko nalang is sa new client ako nabawi dun ako nagtataas. Kasi sa client ko now sobrang bait talaga at sobrang chill kaya nahihiya ako mag ask ng raise and it’s totally fine
Try to research the minimum wage in the area of your client. It will make you less anxious in charging a higher rate if you know the value you're giving.
Agree po ako Ms. Marites.,, it's so natural for us to not just finish a job, but to make sure to have a positve outcome as well.,,
Ako nahihiya din ako magtaas ng rate. Buti nalang yung client ko may kusa hahaha. Within 3 months time 3 times nya din ako tinataasan ng rate. And after 5 month nag offer sya for partnership. So ngayon aside from my monthly salary I also get 5% from the monthly profit. Hindi ganun kataas ang monthly basis but at least nakikita ni client yung worth ko.
Maybe if newbie it is really hard to ask higher rate its not because your not confident enough or depends talaga. kahit naka pag training ka na or naka attend ka any Virtual Training.
Ako kasi I know na may nagawa akong good sa company kasi nasabi sakin ni client na miracle worker daw ako pero ang fear ko kasi is baka magkaron sya ng ibang point of view about me kaya siguro ako nahihiya mag ask. And ang nakakatuwa lang kasi nakakapag open up ako sakanya ng goal ko and she agreed. So siguro ayun yun way ko to say na “client give me more time or give me a raise”
yes nica.thank you
Yes po. That's true po. Simula nung nagstart ako magwork when I was 17 years old. I treated the company as my own. And it helps me also gained knowledge on how to manage the business.
sana po may easy way para makabili ng connect
