I love doing graphic arts and designs and I've designed a few peoples myspace pages and but I've never charged for them. Now I have a celebrity who is interested in my designs and she asked what my rates were!! I don't have RATES! I've never charged anyone or even thought about charging. I wanna do it for free but at the same time, if the design gets noticed I wanna be paid for it! What should I do?!
She's not a HUGE celebrity with stacks of money. She's up and coming and she will star in the new Bratz movie as Sasha. Someone help me before she passes up the offer!
How much should I charge someone to design their myspace page?
Dolthare above is being a little dismissive (unintentionally, I'm sure) and may sound to be telling you to know your limits. Don't do this. If you want to become a designer then start thinking like one. Decide you are one. I remember a great line in the movie 'The Committments' where one of the band was talking to a friend in the welfare queue. He said "I'd prefer being an out-of-work musician to an out-of-work pipefitter" and he's right. If you want to be a designer then start calling yourself one.
Charge a fee. If it was me, I'd charge a reduced one and per hour is right - start placing a value on your time. What you are doing takes skill and is worth more than spending time packing biscuits onto a shop shelf.
Be sure to tell your woman that you are charging very little and it is a great idea about asking her to refer you to her friends.
Get her to e-mail you to thank you for what you have done too. If she becomes the next Angelina a reference like that could open doors for you.
$25 is about 鎷?3 now and is a VERY reasonable rate for designing. If you're happy with that then go for it.

I think you should do her page for free and ask for a good referall from her friends and fellow celeberties so you can get the buisness rolling.

Good for you!
I can't help you with the charges except to tell you that perhaps you can get some ideas form other than do this all the time. I think most site designers charge by the hour. A group I belong to are charged 35$ an hour for updates and designs. you can use that information or contact other web designers for their charges. Figure your time, and charge accordingly.

I would go slightly under whatever the standard is for website design. Remember that even though you have done a few, you are still new to doing it professionally %26amp; also that myspace is supposed to be a do it yourself kind of thing. there are plenty of links out there that will help someone with no experience do it so keep that in mind before you set your rate too high.
