When I first started to figure out how my work compared with others and how it should be priced, I looked at the fees of other artists, who worked in a similar style and who's technical ability matched mine.
I have never liked having to list different prices for each different size and then adding on fees for complexity, even though that's exactly what I ended up with, since that seemed the thing to do at the time of my research. I would love to say instead: " I charge "x" amount per square inch plus "X" amount for each extra person and have the client decide what size suites their budget. Somehow starting with a small figure and adding it up, is not as shocking as seeing the lump sum right off. Does that make sense?!
I often feel that when people hear what I charge they get that look of "Wau, way too expensive!" and it makes me upset that I always have to try to justify my fees. To top it off, I am priced at the bottom end of Richard's fee structure! At this point I really don't know what to ask for anymore.....
Michele, I looked at your pricing again and I like how it is kept simple and precise. I will need to look at mine and revise a couple of things.
