What to charge for a design

[Mayhem]

Has anyone ever purchased a flyer for an advertisment, If so what did you pay, I designed one with like 3 colors total but have no idea what to charge.

If any one could help that would be swell.

Are you making it or buying it? Is it paper to stick under windshield wipers or a banner to go across a highway?

 

[Mayhem]

It's a flyer 8.5x11 peice of paper. somthing to give out.

 

[Rolex]

I take it this is something YOU will be printing?

 

[Mayhem]

Yes. Or go to a print shop but that could be added into the price

How long did it take and how much do think the buyer wants to pay?

Charge what you feel is right for designing it. Print shops adjust their prices by how many you order. X dollars per hundred or per thousand. X for black, X+ for multi colors.
Concider the ink and wear and tear on your printer if you plan to print it.
If I were you, I'd call a print shop, or stop by with your design and get a price quote from them, then just factor in your time for designing it and the leg work involved.

Hmm it really only took me about 30-45 minutes. Lemme look on some print shop sites to see if they list prices.

$20.00-$50.00 would be fair to both.
My guy charges 75.00 per hour for a 4 color layup.

I'd say $40 to $50. Especially if you are just starting out. After you have alot more sold, and can prove your good, youc an charge $100 for something like that.

We pay $100/hour just for the design of the ad. Then give that design (.pdf or some such) to a printer that charges us $18 per 100 for a three color flyer.
