[QUOTE="JoyCreative, post: 1410773, member: 255304"] Thanks chas_m! I really appreciate your info. Yeah I've been searching around and found some more dedicated graphic design forums for questions like these. Yes, I charge by my hourly rate and estimate how many hours it will take me and draw a quote/flat rate from that. Yes indeed, I've factored in an underage charge of 10-15%. But I know I'm being a bit cautious and generous with amount of hours it will take me. Like I've charged for designer-to-client interfacing (back and forth emails and phone calls) and I've only charged 1.5 hrs. for 3 months... I'm thinking that I'm going to regret that if I don't change it to like at least 3 hours or more, which I probably will do. I'm going to use this one for a learning experience and track every second of time to help out with future quotes that I do. I've worked with this client for 2 years but this is the first large-scale campaign that I've done for them so it's all new to me.
