FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My hourly for presentation work, both new and cleaning up is $60 an hour and most 10-20 slide presentations are about 8-10 hours. My video editing starts at $110 hourly, but is not charged for simple edits and you will be charged $60 hr. I love what I do and charge to reach more clients rather than over-charging for a select few.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Starting with a conversation or phone call where the client is free to talk at length (I'm a good listener) about their creative idea and it's vision. Sometimes, I'm not a fit for what they need, but I have a network of talented people to draw from. I love my work, but I really don't like doing logos.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have always been paid to do creative storytelling - written, visual, verbal...it's had a life of it's own. I've been very lucky and keep very current on trends, software and techniques. My education was in Communications and Psychology at Boston University and I began as a television art director in New York City.
