Can you do this in your creative firm or agency? Find out the skills needed and the fatter profit margins you can make.

What is value pricing and why do Dan and Jason think it is more ethical and profitable than hourly billing? How does it benefit your customer? They also discuss building proposals and how to handle change orders after a project is underway. Should your own internal costs be considered when pricing your customer?

Listen to our conversation about these issue and more, and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
