I’m a graphic design student close to graduation so I’m setting up my freelance business. I just don’t know how much I can charge for each thing. My specialty is print. I’ll mostly be aiming for brochures, reports, wedding packages, business identities, etc. I’ll also do illustrations for these projects (like logos, clipart if they want it)…
I’m just not sure what to charge for any of it. I could charge by the hour but I’d like to have set prices instead. Any suggestions for books or websites or just your personal experience?


Updating the old resume and I took on a part time, freelance writing position for a local bilingual newspaper. How can I describe this on my resume?
Basically I listed it on the resume as a “journalist” but can’t think of how to flesh out a description of my job (all I do is write articles, email them to the editor, and receive a check)
Note – I will be using this probably for a job at an advertising agency. Thanks
