How to quote
Mark Monlux is an Illustrator and speaker sharing his pricing strategies - I found his tutorial very helpful - especially when creating original artwork.
Especially love:
"Walk away point
A man dying of thirst on a raft knows that drinking sea water will only speed up his death.
It is crucial to set a walk away point every time you enter negotiations.
Don’t think of your walk away point of how affordable can I make this for the client."
Refer only when walk away point was 1 or 2 – don’t undercut yourself… if it is not good enough for you, it isn’t good enough for the marketplace
Create colleagues pool with a similar brand – resources for extremely big projects could be shared and also finders fees for referrals be established.
