I have been asked to do some freelance work. How much should I charge?

 

This is impossible to answer without knowing the nature of the commission and what rights are being sought. General guidance is not to cite a fee yourself initially, but to start by asking the commissioner what terms you are being offered - and ensure you are satisfied with the proposal before you begin work.

Where it would be helpful, members are encouraged to consult the Society about any specific offer they receive.
