It all depends on the client Marc, if it was a local car dealer or a personal site I would lower my rates and cut back on my costs for the project. If it was for a national car dealer or celebrity personal site I would charge full price.

Now, I have worked on 3 projects of this size and bigger in the last 2 years, they don't come along every day. The pricing is all based upon adding value to your sale.

Salesmanship does come into the equation, as well as having very strong business skills. It is the whole intangible package that I sell to my clients, not just simply a website

I also work very closely with a graphic designer, she does all my clients printing stationary business and packaging.
