Greetings, 
    If you are charging what you are worth, and don't raise your prices, you are effectively saying you are not worth more each year that you gain experience. This is a terrible career path, and will leave you older,  worn out, and with nothing at the end but a beginner's income.  
The fear of losing customers because of pricing will cost you more in the long run than the actual loss of customers ever will.       Inflation never sleeps. If you don't raise your prices every year, you are going backwards.
