Client sends you brief, you send quote, client writes back with counter offer. What do you do?

Remove less necessary portions(bells and whistles) of the project/quote and resubmit with explanation. I did this recently.
Client asked for the world, the quote showed the world cost them too much. I told them what could be done with what they wanted to spend. New agreement. Consider the previously removed options in future phase.

Don't cheapen yourself, if you negotiate now, you'll be negotiating your price with this client forever.

you need to take stuff out if you choose to lower the cost. Not unlike a contractor building a house.

Business is negotiation. It's not cheapening anything. Doing the same work for less money would be that.
