One Size Fits All

Have you ever seen a shoe that fits everyone no matter your size? I haven’t. Even if you get me a shoe in my size, it might not fit me perfectly. The same goes for pricing your creative work.

Hello Reader,

Have you ever struggled with pricing your creative work? Maybe you’ve had clients tell you, "This is too expensive!" or "Can you reduce your price?"

Here’s the thing—one size does not fit all when it comes to pricing. Some clients will find your rates too high, while others will see them as just right. And guess what? That’s okay.

The key is knowing your worth and positioning yourself for the right clients—the ones who value what you offer. Stop trying to fit into a price that makes everyone happy because, just like shoes, pricing isn’t one-size-fits-all.

One size doesn’t fit all—not in shoes, and definitely not in pricing. Stand firm, know your worth, and set boundaries that protect your creative work.

Story of the Week - My Client Wants to Sue Me – What Would You Do?

I arrived at the event venue at 8 AM sharp, even though the event was scheduled to start at 10 AM and end by 3 PM. I was ready—gear set, team in place, mindset locked in.

An hour passed. Then two.

By the time the event finally started, it was 2 PM—a whole five hours late. No apology. No explanation. Just an expectation that I would carry on as if nothing had happened.

I just kept saying to myself, Omo! Omo! Omo!

Now, as a professional, I tried to stay calm. I knew I was there to do my job, and I did just that. But deep down, I was already thinking about how this would affect the rest of my day.

Fast forward to the end of the event—by 8 PM. That’s five hours beyond the agreed closing time. I reminded the client that she would need to pay an extra charge for the additional hours, as clearly outlined in our agreement.

That’s when the drama started.
