This is how freelance DESIGNERS fail

Check for these common pricing mistakes

  • Feeling like you’re underpaid or like you’re providing more than you’re getting paid for
  • Not accounting for periods without work, hence struggling when sick or when you’re not immediately switching from project to project
  • Stressed about finances
  • Have one single pricing strategy that simply doesn’t fit all types of projects
  • Focused on comparing prices with other designers in your network
  • Not having a minimum acceptable rate, and worrying about competing with the lowest bidders

Don’t sell yourself short

A solid pricing strategy is one of the toughest lessons in freelancing

Pricing strategy in freelancing

The only thing that feels worse than being rejected because of your price, is working through a project that you’ve priced way too low and then struggling to keep your motivation and business afloat.

Freelancing doesn’t mean free! And it shouldn’t feel like that.

One of the most challenging lessons in a freelancing career is finding that sweet spot – pricing your work correctly, without underestimating yourself or overcharging your client.

Making sure everything’s accounted for makes your head spin?

Don’t worry! The Ultimate Pricing Guide For Product Designers is detailed and insightful, and it will allow you to sit down and calculate the correct numbers without ever feeling overwhelmed.

Everything vague is clarified with added examples you can modify to model your needs.

BEING PROFITABLE IS NOT OUT OF REACH

How you price your work has an impact on your career

Charge too much, and you won’t stay as busy as you’d like. Charge too little, and you’ll probably have to give up freelancing and get a regular design agency job. We’ve already established that!

However, there are also differences in how you might charge, not just how much. It depends if you’re willing to take the risk of fixed prices or if you want the predictability of hourly rates. It also affects how clients perceive your work. Fixed prices put all the risk of wrong estimates on you and are less risky for clients (they appreciate that). Predictable time-based rates put more risk on the clients since longer projects cost more.

Whatever your current case may be, this Ultimate Pricing Guide For Product Designers will lead you to figure out what’s best for you and how to get to the desired (and correct) numbers yourself!

Hei from Norway! Even though I closed numerous projects in the last year, I either kept struggling to be profitable or worked my ass off for something I thought is going to be my normal monthly revenue. Turns out I was miscalculating my business expenses all the time.

As a former engineer, I hate to break it to you, but reverse-engineering doesn’t work every time. 😂  You saved my ass from overworking to stay afloat! Small adjustments do go a long way! 🤯

Had to come back to you guys with my feedback, because I’m sure there are others like me.

I have a solid experience in the industry and I’ve never struggled with pricing. I decided to take a peek just in case. Gotta say I didn’t expect to learn anything new, but I actually did. I won’t make huge changes to my strategies but I’ll rethink some aspects that were eye-opening. Thanks!

I’ve always felt completely clueless about pricing. It seemed so hard to do it right. And since it’s pricing – people always keep it hush-hush. Watching the examples in the book made me finally figure it out! No one ever shared this in such a concise and structured manner. Thank you SOOO much! 🙇‍♀️

Going through this book made me realise one thing – knowing what I know now, I’d pay more for this book! Such a straightforward resource. I’ll re-read it every year as I adjust my pricing and rates.

I am thinking of starting my full-time freelancing career and this helped a lot! I would never come up with some things you mentioned as I’ve been working on the side for a while and I never had to fully rely on my freelance income.

This means a lot! Thank you for sharing it and I hope my review helps others decide to buy it. It was so worthy.
