Wonderful article!!

I feel that It is quite difficult to be firm and polite at the same time on the price front but I also feel that after a convincing round with the clients, it also depends on the vision of the client about the value Online Marketing Services can add to their business/baby…

In India I see N number of small SEO companies offering their services at very cheap rates and clients hire them primarily on the price….but at the end of the day there is little value added to the brand or website by these companies…..

I just love the magic words by Gillian

This is great advice for almost any consulting or service business! Picking the right clients and sometimes firing the wrong ones can be very liberating and helps keep you focused, motivated and on-track.

Dennis, this is a great article and one that I can truly agree with. I learned this lesson about 12 months ago and haven’t looked back since.

As web marketers, whether running an agency or focusing on independent consulting gigs, it’s important to focus on doing the best work possible and truly becoming an expert. If you build your business around developing and implementing this expertise, there is no reason why you should be an internet marketing charity to freebie clients.

well said Dennis
