CREATOR'S PRICING GUIDE The best way to price your services as a creator

At the beginning of my career as a creator, I struggled a lot with pricing my work. I was wary of undercharging or overcharging. So, I decided to price like a business; I did this by understanding my capital, my cost price, and my running cost. This gave me a starting point but being a creative entrepreneur. It's not as straightforward as selling products; we have to factor in other things like usage rights, exclusivity, level of influence, etc.

In this guide, I shared how I have been able to navigate this and calculate a base fee that ensures you profit from all the work you put out.
