Why do I have to include a price for my service?
The reason we require you to include a price is because we want you to be paid for what you are worth! Don't shy away from adding the price that you deserve to be paid! Having a price displayed also reduces the time spent negotiating pricing between you and your Client.
What are services?
Services are what you offer to clients—they’re the skills, tools, and expertise that you can offer as a freelancer. We recommend adding lots of details to each service, like letting clients know the deliverables, timelines, pricing, and what they can expect by showcasing similar past work.
