i agree with mysticmind .. freelance is business.. u need to be smart, need to be strong.. u need to be firm.. dont let ur customer look at u like u r a begger or sumething... always present urself in a professional way...

one tips that i learn from being a freelancer is that... if ur client ask u to do this n that but never ask what it will cost, ask them back.." dont u want to know the price..?"... than only they will know that u r really doing business here... hehehe...
