September 13, 201115 yr Hi I have designed a website for a company, and now they want a business card design and brochure design to match. I have worked out how long it will take x my hourly rate: business card design is £75 brochure design £125 But the istock images I chose for their web design, I will have to buy bigger, and recreate some of the design, meaning the total will be £283.50 Does that sound Ok? Thanks in advance Lou

Thanks in advance Lou Sounds fine, perhaps a bit cheap but that's your choice. I usually add in the stock images to the quote, Stock imagery for print use - £xx. It might be worth giving them a call or sending them an email to explain the need for high resolution photos. From my experience the client often gets confused when they are asked to pay for an image they have previously bought, giving the client a good understanding first can prevent confusion later on. As Pandadoodle mentioned, what about the cost of printing, sending the goods to the client ect, this also has to be considered in your quote.
September 13, 201115 yr Author Thanks everyone, Luckily I haven't brought the stock images for their web design yet, and was about to, when I got asked for a quote on the cards and brochure. It doesn't include printing. Thanks Lou
September 13, 201115 yr Without seeing the brief and spec it's difficult to tell but my first thought is the Business Card design cost seemed a little on the high side whilst the brochure design cost seemed quite low. Good Luck
September 13, 201115 yr Author Thanks, ironically my parner just said the same, recommended £50 for the cards, £150 for the brochure. Thanks Lou Edited September 13, 201115 yr by Louloulouisa
September 13, 201115 yr Pricing is way off if you ask me personally, why dont you add a quote for printing also with a 10% margin added.

Some pedantic a******* might step into this thread and tell you that 'brought' is the past tense of 'bring' and isn't being used correctly in this sentence. Won't be me though. Nope. As for your actual issue I'll agree with everyone else. Little low but not terrifyingly so. Edited September 13, 201115 yr by Glowbridge
