How we price our work
There is no real mystery to the way we price our creative services - it is a combination of resources needed (time, mainly) along with the level of expertise and specialist skills to complete the job to the standard required.
Legend has it that Pablo Picasso was sketching in the park when a bold woman approached him.
“It’s you — Picasso, the great artist! Oh, you must sketch my portrait! I insist.”
So Picasso agreed to sketch her. After studying her for a moment, he used a single pencil stroke to create her portrait.
He handed the women his work of art.
“It’s perfect!” she gushed.
“You managed to capture my essence with one stroke, in one moment. Thank you! How much do I owe you?”
“Five thousand dollars,” the artist replied.
“But, what?” the woman sputtered.
“How could you want so much money for this picture? It only took you a second to draw it!”
To which Picasso responded, “Madame, it took me my entire life.”
Don't worry, we are not saying we 'think' we are Picasso neither are we ever going to charge $5000 for a seconds worth of work, but it serves to illustrates a point well.
At Satsuma Creative we price our work fairly, our team of creatives are all experienced, talented professionals who produce the highest quality work for our clients and this skill should be recognised.
We are a small team and as such are able to keep our overheads to a minimum, as a result we are able to price our work at a competitive rate which does not de-value the work that we do.
We are happy to discuss and explain any quotation we make but please do not haggle as it will embarrass both parties!
Our quotes are honest and fair and take into account the quality of service and design you would expect from a leading design agency but with local and start-up budgets in mind.
Pricing: Design services
Graphic design / web design
Each job is quoted for on an agreed brief based on our communication, whether meeting, email or telephone conversation. Once agreed via email the price is fixed unless the brief or the extent of the work changes after the project has commenced, for example, if we have been supplied images to use but their quality requires us to do some post production work. If this happens we will contact you before starting any additional work.
Graphic Design Run-on work is charged at £40 p/h
Web Design Run-on work is charged at £50 p/h
