I have experienced the problem of how much to charge and felt uncomfortable when I charged the fee that my services are worth. I finally decided that I was providing a useful service which also provided value. I set a price and if the potential client thought the price was exorbitant the client was free to seek another offering the same services I provided.

It was wonderful. I now have only clients who believe in the value I provide and the amount of drama in my professional life has been reduced to a minimum.

The turning point for me was in asking and answering the question about the true value of my services. When I became clear about that the decision was much easier.

This works for me. YMMV
