As a follow up to the thread in the logo section called Design Too Cheap I'd like to post a link to an article which makes for very good reading.

Its an American article but it is very much relevant to creative types all over the world.

I would urge anyone who is charging very low rates for their creative services to read this article and then look again at their pricing structure :)

It is a large article, but please take the time to read it. You will be glad you did:


Educate Lowballers and Stop Lowballing
by Leslie Burns-Dell'Acqua

Not looked at the article yet (looks good and intensive from a quick glance).

It's appalling that both designers and receiving businesses look at quoting/demanding silly low prices, there are costs to running a business and those costs are not met by trying to outbid each other for 1 or so dollar projects. It does no credit to the industry which is already saturated.

Very nice read indeed, thanks for sharing!

Not had chance to read the article but also worth looking at the GDF thread 'Design from £20!'.

ATB, Craig.
