None of those two. Charge by value you deliver. You can build a 100K car in an hour? Excellent.
Don't punish yourself by charging only $100 for the hour you worked on it.
Know your value - which in capitalism depends on market demand - and charge accordingly.
When you are a distinguished expert you can charge more of course as well.
Make a name for yourself and ensure that everybody knows upfront that you are not a "cheap outsourcing" drone.
- dominotw 7y ago> You can build a 100K car in an hour? Excellent. Why wouldn't ur hourly rate be 100k then (vs $100) ?
- gk1 7y ago- what if you found an even faster way and did it in 30 minutes, do you charge half that? - what if it takes you a bit longer, 2 hours, is it fair to charge the client 2x? The point is, the client wants a car, not an hour of car-making. Also, the moment you provide an hourly rate you get compared to other hourly workers, whether it’s fair or not. “What?! $100k an hour? Even our lawyers cost less!”
