What's a good idea worth?

Creativity, originality, ideas and concepts aren't based on time, they're governed by talent. This means that creative work can't be priced by the normal method of estimating time and charging an hourly rate - inspiration isn't like that.

However no-one can proceed with a project without some idea of cost, so here's a list of fees - as a guide for comparison purposes and to assist you in allocating an adequate budget. 

All projects are accurately costed with a written quotation supplied before proceeding.

Design Fees

• Basic Fee: £150 + expenses for simple one-off promotional items like flyers, posters, press adverts etc.

• Brochures, newsletters and simple business literature: £250 + expenses.

• Corporate design, logos, IDs and company stationery: £500 + expenses.

• Branding, website design and graphics: £1000 + expenses.

• Periodicals and magazine design, sales and marketing campaigns and multi-media projects: A monthly retainer arrangement + expenses (6 months minimum).

• Press releases and PR campaigns: A monthly retainer arrangement + expenses (12 months minimum).

• Advertising campaigns: annual contract paid as a monthly retainer. Creative fees based on a 15% mark-up of total advertising spend (a standard agency mark-up). 
  Let's be honest. You'll need to allocate an annual budget of at least £50,000 to give even a basic press advertising campaign any chance of success. If you have a smaller budget there are more effective ways of maximising your investment.

I'm happy to talk anytime, day or night - call if you need to discuss or clarify a particular project.

We produce high quality CMYK 'print-ready' files suitable for professional litho and digital output. We can also arrange printing if required.
