WHYYYYYYYY?? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY???????????? - And, to finally fulfill my lifelong potential as the world’s least appropriate advice columnist, offering you hard-won advice on one thing: how to make money without being a douche. In fact, that’s the name of the new column! 😏 HOW TO MAKE MONEY WITHOUT BEING A DOUCHE is the name of my brand-new Wednesday advice column here at The Middle Finger Project, and it’s for creatives and nomads worldwide who are trying to make money with their passions…but kinda sorta suck at it. And, I’m soliciting YOUR money & client conundrums! - Have you been working for years for a client for pennies…but don’t know how to raise your rates? - Do you know you’re wayyyyy undercharging…but don’t have the confidence to charge more? - Do you have a nightmare client who’s refusing to pay, or asking for a refund—and you’re terrified to even respond? - Does your client take forever to give you feedback, royally screwing all your timelines and costing you cash dollar billz? - Do you avoid “hopping on a call” with new clients because THOSE ARE AWFUL AND INTIMIDATING? (And you’re leaving a lot of money on the table because of it?) - Do you have someone who’s scope creepin’ you, constantly adding things to the list that weren’t agreed upon, taking up a lot of time without offering compensation…and you don’t know how set proper boundaries? - Is your client The Satan of Seventeen Thousand Emails on a Sunday???? - Are you dying to end a client relationship, but have no clue how? - Trying to respond professionally to an inappropriate request, but struggling to find the words??? - Got a friend who wants you to do work for them, but you’re uncomfortable charging them money? - Got some other messy money situation and have no idea how to handle it? HIT ME, JACK! 💥 You can now submit your worst, most aggravating, soul-punching, mind-baffling money & client conundrums, and I’ll select a new one each week to respond to, in-depth, offering my best advice after 15 years working as an independent writer from around the globe, earning millions of feel-good dollars with my work, and having faced every weird, wacky, unexpected situation under the sun. While I won’t be able to respond personally to all submissions, I do hope that this new column is a great community learning vehicle & way for us to get the confidence to charge more, do badass work, and regret nothing.
