Freelance Rates: Asking For vs. Accepting a High Fee
"Miranda: I am struggling with this topic too. I have sometimes paid in order to to present my stuff! ;) I have talked for free in order to start new potential business relationships. And I have been accepting a high fee for a speaking gig. I will write a philosophical piece on the exchange of values and the trader principle. In the future, I will ask to get paid in silver (via my webshop) as one part of the terms of payment. I will call it an "advance of (real, objective) money". I have written a blog post in 2009 (Sponsor and Support EGO Blog) and quoted it in on my company site, WorkShop page: "As a "trader in matter & spirit," I am open to discuss different terms of exchange of values, i.e., delivery of service and payment. As a supporter of objective money, i.e., precious metals, my standard price is 1 kg / ~35.27 oz of silver (Ag) according to the buy rates at GoldMoney for a 1/2 working day (circa 4 hours, effective time).

"Cate: I agree strongly with following statement: "Be consistent with your site’s personality." I have added an interactive FAQ-tool called (Form)Spring.me on my About page. I see now that I have to update my About page with some fresh links and some other tidbits! ;)"Customer Service Matters Much More Than You May Think
"You have both internal and external customers. I have worked as a purchaser for a long time and in order to serve the end-customer, I supplied my internal customer, the factory, with raw material for the production of welding electrodes, on time, at a competitive price (cost) and with a quality according to a specification."Subscribe
