I just read this article in “Hacker Monthly,” and initially the idea scared me. Not set pricing? Insane! Then I started thinking about my oldest client, who has been with me since 2003. I have never sent her a bill and never will. I host and maintain her website, and I never report hours. She sends me checks when she feels like it, and it’s always more than what I would have billed hourly.

You’re so right – this can be a wonderful approach for long-term clients.

I’m going to try this on my next 10 projects. I’ll report here on how it turns out.

Btw, I like your domain name. Laser sharp. The articles, too!

Thank you.

Great read and interesting concept. Scary and quite risky but again great concept if utilized with the right clients.

I tried this with two people. Both wanted company logos. One a family member, the other a reliable client. One paid 1/20th of what I normally charge, the other paid 4 times what I normally charge. Gotta be smart with who you try it on.
