If you're reliable you don't have to chase work on boards.
And there's always some cheap fucker with torrent copies of software doing designs for $150. Before employing a designer ask to see their receipt for photoshop.

Nothing wrong with chasing the boards for some extra work. I agree that if you are reliable you don't HAVE to chase the boards, most of my clients come from referral, but if your also good enough you can juggle multiple projects at once no problem and still create quality work. More money and free marketing from the boards never hurts.
Problem is that there are few good designers that can get quality work done one time and too many designers watering down the market with "how low can you go" design prices. Sometimes you have to pay for quality to get it done right and on time.
