Graphic Designer : How much to charge for designing business cards?
When I design anything for a client, I always ask them the following questions to determine the price. First of all, what type of color are they wanting? Full process color? Spot color? Greyscale?


Do they have a logo or do they need one designed for them?





The pricing for a business card should vary depending on the amount of work you put into it. When deciding on pricing for a brochure for your freelance work, you should say, for example, business cards- $50 and up.
Reply:i've done basics for $35 but can go much higher depending on what else you have to do - shoot photos, purchase a stock photo, do involved lettering or create a specific design. it can go up past $100 if it's going to take a few hours rather than just bang one out.
Reply:Is logo design involved?





for a complete stationery solution (minus print) i charge £600





before i quote id typically set a ceiling on how much time the client gets with me otherwise all of the endless iterations will cost YOU money!
Reply:£200
Reply:If you are any good, aruond £60 per hour.





If you are just familiar with using photoshop etc and just place things, around £25 per hour.





You should never give a blanket price for a job becuase some take much longer than others and you need to cover for this.





Speak to the client before hand an get an idea of what's involved, and then work out how long and a cost.
Reply:I think the machines charge about £2.50 for a hundred cards.
Reply:£25/hour would be the going rate currently.
