Great point! It does to a degree depend upon your business strategies and even your own personality and values. For anyone looking to create a business that stands the test of time, the “slow burn” approach helps to develop the sustainable growth.

You make an excellent point about letting it burn “slowly” so that you can control business growth and not letting it control you. I think one of our biggest pitfalls as a society is gravitating to instant gratification; quick cash and quick growth. Time again and again shows us that “easy comes, easy goes” so let’s be very careful how we grow our business. Looking at your business holistically and going for organic growth can work wonders for long-term success, unless your business strategy is to grow quick and get out quick. It really depends on your business strategy. Great post!

Biblical principles ALAWYS work. Slow burning is biblical inspired and our ancestors read their Bibles. We don’t do that, hence we always are into instant, without foundation and have the tendency “burn” too much, make a mess and do not live beneficial. Thank you for pointing out this concept of basic business principle. I needed that encouragement, because even though this is my 14th business I am starting ( I get bored quickly), I forgot that part.

Comment on Fear Factor: Why this emotion is necessary for success by Beate ( Bay-Ott-Tay)

Excellent discerned! I like Plato a lot also, but I like Jesus Christ better, who tell us umpteen times: FEAR NOT! God is pretty cool about fixing things and you are right: when something hurt, it’s time to stop and try something else.
Even as atheist I had no use for fear, since fear never was my motivator. I came to USA without knowing anybody 35 years ago. Never occurred to me I might encounter any situation I could not handle. Fear is crippling to most people and I am so grateful I fear only God and nothing else. Perfect love casts out all fear. Be blessed and thank you for the good reading material.

So glad you could find this useful, Jeff! Pricing my services will continue to be an ongoing journey for me, I believe. I’ve had similar experiences where clients feel more comfortable paying a higher price with the expectation that the quality of service will match.

I so need to learn this. I started freelancing thinking I’d never land any gigs and offered tiny rates just hoping to land something. Now I’m learning I need to charge much more. The last guy actually said, “I like your stuff, but we’re going to pay you way more.” That was nice.
