Even if we\u2019ve had a consistent run of incoming leads and enquiries, something makes us worry about never getting another client. The fear of not having enough work actually kept Sue overloaded with work she didn\u2019t really love. Taking on as many projects as she could that came her way didn\u2019t leave her with any capacity to find the work she was really looking for. The fears really play out when evaluating whether to take on a new project. It helps to take the emotion out of the quoting process and there are a few ways we can tackle this. I suggest starting by reflecting on what goes on in your mind when you\u2019re about to quote on a job. What are you telling yourself? Are these thoughts and assumptions serving you? I discuss with Sue, step by step, how to address the worries that crop up for her when deciding whether to quote for editing work. It\u2019s important to know your numbers \u2013 your track record and your income needs \u2013 and develop a decision-making flow for handling quotes that relies on facts rather than your thoughts. Having a sound process will guide you through sensible quoting that will serve your business, not your fears. \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.
