Just realized my friend was right about not taking every job
My buddy Mike told me to stop accepting $500 logo gigs from clients who argue about every revision. I finally said no to one last month and landed a $3k branding project with clear terms the next week. How do you guys decide when a client isn't worth the hassle?

Stop framing it as clients not being worth the hassle. The real problem is you not being worth your own time. You took a $500 job with endless revisions because you didn't value your own work enough to set a limit. That $3k project didn't just appear, it became possible because you finally made space for it by saying no. Decide your minimum price and your revision policy before you even talk to a client, and stick to it.

Wait but what if you do set a limit and they just leave? I mean sometimes the choice is a bad client or no client at all.
