Larissa’s Hourly Rate Warning - Why Are We Shouting? with Jill Salzman
This one's for you if you charge prices that are too cheap compared to what you are worth!
Larissa Bodniowycz joins the Why Are We Shouting? podcast with Jill Salzman to discuss how she undercharged for her job in the hopes of attracting more clients.
Bold City Legal, a law firm for freelancers and small businesses, was founded by Larissa, who also serves as its managing attorney. She assists small company owners with trademarks, copyright issues, and other legal matters.
Consider starting a small business and obtaining the customer of your dreams, not to mention the pay. You're well aware that you'll need to write things down on paper in some form. So you hire a lawyer to assist you! While skimming through Google, you come across an attorney you like and discover that they are licensed in two states: Florida and California, and that they specialize in small company work. So you take advantage of their complimentary first call and discover that their hourly charge is merely $35. "Isn't this too good to be true?" you wondered, knowing the fact that attorneys are notoriously pricey.
