In this episode, Troy Dean and I start with the first question he asks guests on his podcast, What did you want to be when you grew up? Then, we dive deep into the pricing mindset of a WordPress designer / developer. We explore how to stop billing by the hour, ask great questions during the sales conversation and create outstanding marketing content.
