How much should I charge for freelance graphic design?

How much to charge for graphic design freelance work?

  • Today I got hired for my first freelance project!! The guy wants me to create a 1/4-page flyer, a banner, and a poster. He is providing the artwork/text, I just come up with the layout. I am going to create a 4-up layout for the flyers, and whatever dimensions he needs for the poster and banner. I know you are not into the smaller scale projects, but what do you think I should charge for this type of work? I think a flat fee would be best but I wanted your opinion before I spoke with him. Let me know what you think!

  • Answer:

    You may register at freelance website like http://getafreelnacer.com/ and start bidding for all graphic designing projects posted there , from average bid posted for each project you can get fair amount of idea on how much to charge for any graphic designing project.

Get some money up front... like half of the cost of your labor. I've had alot of people flake on me and I didn't get paid. Since it's your first freelance job, keep the hourly rate a little lower than you would if you were a seasoned designer. Say $20 per hour. A flate fee can come back to bite you if they want change after change to be made. I think I'd charge about 20 an hour X 6 hours, so about $120 plus printing expenses... tack on another hour for your time sending it to them and for you to approve or make changes to the proof. Now we're at $140. Then if they have any major changes I'd bill them at $20 per hour.
