Thanks for the great input – what is the name of the app which he has mentioned here 4:29 ?
totally unrelated, but what kinda shoes you wearing pratik?
so what would be the minimun rate for Project?
it's a pity, you don't mention any numbers… I prefer to charge per image, by the way
What is the app?
Kya baat hai bhai
this was the most pointless video ever and he totally didnt answer the question.
he could have said something like 20$ an hour or 20$ per image something to give yu a clue on a starting point and then let us work it out…..but maybe he did i dont know how much it is to buy coffee
Clear as mud. That's five minutes I'll never get back.
I watched a video once about not charging for your time. And the reason this was a good thing to avoid is because the better you get the faster you get… the less you earn?? Thats crazy, you should charge for your quality as you get better not per hr. Because the worth you bring to the company buy getting the image to them faster is worth more to them right.
How can I bought his tutorial RGG? i hope it includes his all actions, full retouching video and others. would you like to sell some discount.
I do charge hourly, but I have never (or rarely) wavered from my original estimate. It sets a bad tone and I wanted to make sure I never had that reputation as an artist. Earlier in my career, I ate the time/money so I could learn on the job and pick up my speed. It challenged me to get a good flow down so I would stop losing money! 😂
I guess technically I could say I charge per project since my estimate is always accurate of what I end up invoicing. This could be an easier way to present to a client since hourly charging can be overwhelming to some. Gives me something to think about. Thanks for the insight!
Lol minority in both ways
