Summary

Aisha wants to charge what she's worth, but like most beginner freelancers, she isn't sure where to start. Preston Lee and Austin Church tackle the age-old pricing question head-on, walking through the pitfalls of using your old salary as a benchmark and the trap of pricing based on what your freelance friends charge. They introduce two numbers every freelancer needs — a survival rate and a dream rate — and explain how packaging your work, not just your hourly rate, can be the difference between charging $1 or $3 for the same lettuce. It's a practical, no-fluff guide to setting prices that keep you in business and paid what you deserve.
