Frequent comments on how much I ask for in a contract. Basic answer: “I’m worth it.”
KNOW YOUR WORTH
Why am I worth it? Because past experiences have shown
- Clients/Stakeholders appreciate my open/honest/transparent communication
- Stakeholders love the fact that I take the time to explain things to them, and I’m not condescending about it
- Teams like that I protect them, and help showcase their work
- Combination of business and technical expertise makes me a perfect candidate to work across areas and translate.
- Stakeholders and dev teams appreciate my unique insights into every day problems.
