Pricing Calculator for Photographers

We all know that running a business isn’t easy, especially when it comes to knowing what to charge for our products and services.  Unfortunately there is no set amount that someone can tell you what to charge, and this is due to a number of factors i.e. the demographics of your customer base, your level of experience and your cost of doing business.

THE most important thing you need to know when structuring your pricing is “YOU HAVE TO VALUE YOUR OWN TIME AND TALENT”.

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE PRICING CALCULATOR
