Well, like it or not it is the rates that really makes the difference between getting a project tender or not.

Put all the quality aside, let's say A & B company has the same quality, same reputation, professionalism, same service, got the same request of quote from a client. If one gets hold of the other's quote, wouldn't that be an advantage?
Once you are in par with the competition, then the $$$ is your trump card. It's a quote vs quote on per project basis, just like in any other industry.

3d is growing so fast, so many new talents with amazing quality are emerging on daily basis, and quality among some of us here are almost identical. There's no real single top player nowadays, there's a bunch competing at the same level.

Sure, a clever marketing strategy can be a good advantage, though.

Not in panic here, just that we have got one too many project snatched away just because of the price. Also has taken some from our other competitor's using the same method. Win some, lose some.

I think this is true. When the magic render button comes, all of us will have to think of another line of work. Well, maybe going back to traditional watercolour will be the highly priced 'retro' art by then.
