It is very easy to offer a 'special / promotional / one-off / etc' lower day-rate but very much harder to price up with a current customer.
Price high but fair (i.e. good value for money). If a customer baulks at this, try somewhere else!

I'm more worried about being able to have a consistent income.
My role within the business is to acquire a supply chain, make monthly interim applications to the customer, agree interim monthly payments with the supply chain, report on internal profit and loss and generally create and maintain a margin from outset to completion. This is considered a low risk environment within construction as payment is made monthly.
Surely in this model you will be putting yourself on this interim applications (monthly) and then getting paid monthly
