To all those clients who are coming my way for any kind of designing work like, Logos, Websites, Intros, mockups, flyers or any other design requirements, I want you to know that, the price depends upon the required stuff.

I don’t understand why people underestimate a designer who puts some serious efforts and time to create something amazing from scratch for you and still, gets no credit/recognition and/or the right amount?

I’ve been experiencing this for couple of days now, and I’m so done with it.

I’ve a question for you as well, would you charge $50 for your product/service which is worth $100 ??? I guess no one would do this. It means, that your product/service is worth charging the said amount and not the others???

If you want to grow your business/yourself in a professional way, do not underestimate the skills, time and efforts of those who, supported you or your business one way or another!!!

Thanks

Sane

    “The price depends on the required stuff”.

    Your ability to sell will make or break you. If you speak like that to your clients… they are going to underestimate you.

    And to answer you question. No. If a client has a problem with my quote they can find another person. My price is my price.

    Your mileage may vary.

    This is because 98% of designers suck, but think they are great. It’s a crapshoot.

      It’s difficult to nail down a great one but god damn if it isn’t the best thing ever when you do

    I’ll add that the other big challenge for you (and this is just my experience as a design “client”) is there are seemingly millions of “designers” world wide and it’s something that doesn’t need to be delivered in-person. With the globalization of the workforce, you can find someone internationally willing to work for a couple dollars and the results are typically good enough, if not great.

    You’re basing worth on time and effort. That’s a mistake.

    Worth comes from the impact on the business.

    There’s no point being upset with the client. You need to prove that your designs will make them money.

    People who don’t design things don’t understand how hard it is. If their teenage nephew can do it, they should get their teenage nephew to do it.
