It’s possibly the most baffling question that faces new freelancers: What in the heck am I supposed to charge for my work?
You don’t have a sense of market rates yet. Your prospect doesn’t want to tell you their budget. Figuring out what to charge for your freelance services is intimidating.
If you’ve been freelancing for content mills, or on bidding sites, or responding to Craigslist ads, you’ve probably seen loads of offers at rates that wouldn’t support a hamster. It’s confusing to know what fees are appropriate for what type of gig.
You don’t want to bid too low and essentially rip yourself off. But you don’t want to bid too high and lose the gig, either.
