- Pricing yourself as a freelance designer is one of the most difficult and continuous struggles you'll face on your creative journey. In this video I hope to shed some light on the pricing discourse by revealing what I've charged for design projects over some time, as well as giving some tips on how to choose your project rates.

Man recently I got 70$ for 7 more simple designs and thought i was charging a lot, never the less I feel kinda robbed ngl
Will up my prices next time tho
Well you win some and you lose some 🤷♂️ just work around what YOU feel is best for the work you’re producing.
Gotta think about that hourly rate, my dude. Not to mention taxes. Even if you only work about 4.5 hours on all 7 designs total, that's only $15/hour before taxes and costs.
So informative and reassuring🙏 i have been dipping more into freelancing and felt as if $200 per design was too much, but definitely feel now that i am justified in what I charge as I grow.
same! i was hovering around that $200 range too. i just started upping my charge by like $40-$50 per project and that really helped my confidence
It so depends on your client (although it does in my case).
Sometimes I work on a project basis, sometimes per hour.
Sometimes a project pays me 5000 for 32 hours. Sometimes 500 for 10 hours.
Have fun. Work. And keep learning.
Get those fun projects for low $$ and those boring projects for big $$.
And. Not to forget, if you’re designing for duplicates. Such as prints, shirts or online usage. Make sure you’re receiving royalties per, or get them payed off beforehand.

Ayy doron. These early designs are fire. Please make a video series try to remake them. I would be a better place for a beginner to start with. Plus the really good quality designs 🙏🏽
I do merchandise design full time and have been doing it for 4 years now and this helps a lot wow thank you!
Hey Doron, could you make a video or comment about where you found clients in your early days? I'm sure you get hit up for work now, but starting out, it is definitely challenging finding the right clients and where to look. Right now I use twitter, but it's not the best when you have a lower following. Thanks bro! Love your work.
You always have to remember the different clients you work for: is it one guy/artist? A band with multiple members? A clothing/whatever company? All of them will have different budgets, or rather, are able to pay more/better rates. You're not going to charge the bodega on the corner as much as Adidas, right?
Great video brotha and it was dope hanging again at Max!
I needed this ! Keep at it bro
How do you find your clients? Or what did you do so your clients came to you? Cause I know through social media you can promote yourself, emails and etc. But I feel like this topic is not talked much. "Your first client is the hardest" well I got already couple of clients but how do you continue with that pace, cause for me it was just luck
wondering the same
this was so informative!! keep it up man, can we pls get another graphic walkthrough tutorial video in the future??
Lmaoo i also worked with NYP! They are super chill! Brion is a great dude
Love this video! I myself have been struggling with the direction I've been wanting to take in terms of pricing for projects. This is a very reassuring video and it has taught me very well. You're one of the best in the game to do it! ❤
suuuuper helpful, thank you!
Respect for sharing your experience, homie! You’re very much appreciated.
Honestly the was needed because I am recently now starting to take work & labeled myself as a freelancer but didn’t know what to start off with pay
Sir Studios never misses
great video - shows the ins and outs of price changes per design amongst different clients and time constraints (congrats on the green day design that's huge!)
Love the in depth video about this subject. Maybe the next video can be a video on setting up your website with different website creators like wix canva etc.
Great to meet you at Max mate, going to add your channel on my next email newsletter as a recommend to follow.
Thank you man. Was super nice meeting you! I appreciate that 🤝
Great video, love the transparency. Would love some behind-the-scenes on that stick Horror Jewelry eye design. Curious how that illustration came about!
thank you for being so transparent Doron, very valuable stuff you put out!
dope stuff man! cool to see a fellow designer talk openly about this.
I rock with this dude, subbed
Good stuff. Also, having higher rates often increase the percieved value of your work by the client and allows them respect and to commit even more to your graphic propositions. 😉
very transparent again! great one, thank you
Super valuable video. This helped me a ton. Thank you dude!!
much love from mx 🙏🏻
thanks doron you're amazing.
Awesome video this was so informative! keep it up man💯
Thanks for posting something like this
So helpful
this is actually crazy bro i charged 20-25 for designs
😂😂🤣😭😭
A+ content, ty king
love this! my going rate was 300 but now that time/work has gotten better it's going to have to change.
question! do you or anyone else in here just work until people reach out to you or work and reach out at the same time?
Great video! Any tips on finding freelance clients? You had a ton your first year!
This was cool, but I was shocked to hear that you only got paid $1000 for the Green Day shirts. You should definitely ask about royalties man, they’re probably selling 30,000 of those t shirts with your design on them!
Thank you!
ty for making this video
great video as always man! do u have any tips for every up and coming designers how to get a client for the first time?
Great video
keep uploading please brother please
How did you get clients in the beginning?
Such and informative video Doron! Just wondering, how did you get yourself out there when you first started out? I think that’s the hardest part about being a designer.
I can barely find clients and they never wanna pay more than $100 :/
Can you tell us how can we promote ourselves as graphic designers? Instagram works very bad lately for that.
How do you get into the label merch stuff?
Heyy man loved your vid as always. I was wondering what your stance on AI was at this point in time? Is is something you're already integrating into your designs? Do you think it will positively/negatively affect the amount of work you get? x
I saw many artists on fiverr selling this similar style of design for only $5.
Have you ever thought getting royalties for the artwork that is sold to bands or streetwear brands?
Thats a hella great video, learned a lot! Thank you :)
i have some questions tho:
when you said 500 per submission and 500 per approval in the music industry. Did you mean 500 per 1 design or its like few designs like 7 ?
and can you do please a video explaining how you get clients and show the ways that you got a few clients over the years. like you did this video?
500 per approved design. But this can mean coming up with multiple concepts with only few being approved/paid for
Tyyyy
broo can you share that wallpapers thats tuff
Some of the designs are not even design jobs are straight up illustration jobs… like the eye one
Do you draw/make some of the imageries in your posters? I feel like not being able to draw well is limiting me as a graphic design student
me watching this while charging 3$ per design ( adobe illustrator n not photoshop ) 😭😭😭
I got client and he’s music artist, he order design to me $50 for 2 design for tees merch, the design concept like what you make. This is fair for $25 per design?
When i see doron, i saw jesus 🫡
