I've experimented with a few freelance pricing models over the years, and considered value-based pricing, but could never find a way to make it work. I found that clients just didn't want to have that type of conversation - and because I'm not a natural salesman, I never pushed it further.
Instead, I changed the focus of my writing work - and became more skilled in B2B writing. That helped me to up my writing, and my rates - and I'm pretty happy with where I am at right now.
Thanks for sharing Paul, that's heartening to hear, particularly about it not just being for you, but also your clients not wanting to have that conversation.
