Quotes:
“If you’re going to send a proposal, what decision are you asking them to make? You’re asking them to create the whole thing in their head and then guessing how you would work, and then they just magically tell you. And sometimes that will work.”
“…you’re actually just documenting an action plan. That’s really all a proposal should be, you’re just documenting an action plan that you both came up with together.”
“How you get payed more is really just confidence. It’s having confidence in yourself to charge at a higher amount.”
