What do you say when a client likes your work, then asks you to lower the price?
That conversation can be harder than the creative work itself. Especially when you want the project, need the income or worry that pushing back will cost you the relationship.
At this Artbox panel, Adrian Tan speaks with Kyle Ong, James Tan and Johnson Gunasekaran about how they handle those moments across filmmaking, photography and marketing.
James explains why having prices ready for additional requests helps you respond before the work starts piling up. Kyle discusses negotiating a trade-off when a client wants a discount. Johnson shares why a rate quoted two years ago does not have to remain your rate forever.
For freelancers and small agency owners, these are decisions that shape how much time a project actually takes— and whether the fee still makes sense.
Which is harder for you: quoting your price or holding it when someone pushes back?
