Creating Prices for Clients

Pricing Projects for Clients

Things to know before you create an estimate and give a client a price

  1. The scope
  2. Functionality Requirements
  3. Timeline

Ways to make creating estimates and developing prices easier

  1. Determine your hourly rate

  3. Save these lists and track your time as you work, to make the next estimate easier

Giving Prices to client

When I was brainstorming different personal project ideas it seemed obvious that books should fall on the list somewhere. While trying to evolve this idea to design something including books the first thought was of course the cover and the layout on the inside, but I quickly felt skeptical about this idea because of the amount of time it would take to read the book and the amount of time that it would take for me to design the entire thing. After coming up with ideas and quickly dismissing them for about an hour I finally landed on my final project objective. Objective To relax and have fun while designing and developing book cover designs, while improving my illustration...

Index Card Challenge The index card challenge is a popular design/art challenge that can help improve illustrating skills, creative development, and can be nice break from working on the computer.
