I don’t usually do design work for startups so I could use a little bit of a helping hand in pricing a job. I like the idea of working with a startup because, if it succeeds, I could be getting alot more work.
Anyway, Client is a soft drink startup. They need branding, can design, and packaging for said cans. This type of project will require me to research, come up with the brand, brand standards, packaging, and pre production work. I don’t really think it will take me that long to do all of this since I have templates and they have a pretty good idea on what they want. What I would usually charge may scare them away. I’m willing to do it for less but don’t want to make that a normal thing with them if more work comes my way either. If they are going to succeed because of me I would like to get fairly paid.
So, thoughts or experience on pricing for startups?.. Or even just working with startups what have your experiences been?
