@Marcus Chen The revision cap is genius. I just had a logo project with 9 revisions. Flat rate. Lost money. Adding the cap to my next proposal. How do you communicate the cap without sounding restrictive?

@DerekNoBS @Marcus_C @HannahK @SamC Update: I staggered it. Raised one client, grandfathered one, added a deliverable to the third. Zero losses. Revenue up 25%. This thread literally saved my business. Thank you all.

I have been at $75/hour for two years. My skills have improved but I am terrified to send the new rate to my long-term clients. Three of them account for 60% of my income. How do you actually communicate a price increase without them all leaving?

@HannahK @DerekNoBS This thread just changed my entire strategy. Dropping the free workshop plan. Going to try the guest post route first (Marcus_C's approach), then the paid masterclass. Will update on which one lands. Thank you all — genuinely.

Switched to a paid waitlist and validated demand with actual buyers.

I have been chasing revenue goals and feeling empty when I hit them. Hearing that success can be calendar control or client respect is expanding my definition. I think I need to figure out what I actually want before I chase more.

I have been feeling generic but scared of custom costs. Hearing that heavy template customization is an option is relieving. What does 20% custom actually look like in practice SamC?

I needed this thread. I have been creating once and letting it die. The angle change approach makes so much sense. How do you track which angles you have used so you do not accidentally repeat?

I almost bought an AI course creation tool last week. Hearing that AI video is not ready saved me money. What about AI transcription tools? Are those actually useful or overrated too?

I have been paralyzed by this decision. Hearing that conditional refunds filter tire kickers is helpful. What happens if someone disputes the 50% completion requirement HannahK?

have been using single prompts and wondering why the output is generic. The multi-step process makes so much sense. Do you save your prompt sequences or recreate them each time?

I chose my niche a year ago and it is not gaining traction. Part of me wants to pivot. Part of me worries have not given it enough time. How do you know when to pivot versus when to persist?

I have tried Unbounce, Leadpages, and Carrd. Each has pros and cons. What landing page builder are you actually using in 2026 and why? Not affiliate links. Real experience.

I needed this thread. I say yes to every custom request because I am scared of losing the deal. Hearing that you define the scope and let them choose is a complete mindset shift. How do you handle pushback?

I have been chasing followers instead of buyers. This thread is making me rethink my entire content strategy. How long are your case studies Marcus_C? I want to try this format

I am paralyzed by this decision. Generalist feels safe. Niche feels risky. Hearing that you can serve broadly but market narrowly is a helpful distinction. How did you pick your niche Marcus_C?

I am launching my first real product next month and every day I convince myself nobody will buy. My brain says who am I to teach this. How do you actually manage imposter syndrome when real money is on the line?

I bought the myth that everyone else was further ahead. Comparison killed my momentum for a year. Reality: most people are figuring it out as they go. The ones who look like they have it together are just better at posting.

I needed this thread. I have been at $50 an hour for a year because I am scared. Hearing that you lost clients but replaced them is actually encouraging. How do you communicate the increase without apologizing?

I am at $410 and panicking. Hearing DerekNoBS at $95 is making me question everything. What is the one tool you would never cut even if money got tight?

I have not found one yet. Every output feels like a press release. Going to try HannahK's training method. Twenty examples seems manageable. Does it work for long form too or just short copy?

I needed both perspectives here. The track inputs advice and the change something advice. I think I have been consistent but not iterating. Going to audit my last ten posts and see what actually landed.

I needed this thread. I say yes to everyone because I am scared of losing revenue. Hearing that saying no actually increased your income is a complete mindset shift. How long did it take to see results after narrowing?

This is exactly my fear. I see everyone launching and think why would anyone buy from me. But hearing that the market is still growing helps. How do you know if you audience is buyers versus just followers?
