Guys and girlies,

One last word from me about the price fighters and if they can harm your 
business.
I like to stretch out that there's really one thing that's worth a good 
TYPO3 consultancy fee; *quality*.
Ofcourse there're lots and lots of free-lancers who are willing to work 
for 30 euro's an hour or even less. But most of them are not able to 
implement a high quality TYPO3 site that fits the quality standard of 
professional organisations. Let alone the issues like xhtml compliancy 
and level 2 accessability that are demanded by the big companies and the 
governmental organisations.
So I guess this leaves for the price fighters the low end of the market 
that most of you even don't want to be in. So be the best TYPO3 
consultant you can be and you get the high-end clients who are not 
looking for a cheap shot but a really good website or intranet because 
they realise it's a key-asset to their organisation. And the ones that 
go for a low price in first instance will hear echo your warnings once 
they realise what a shitty implementation they have and will come back 
to you.

Cheerio, Sander
