Hi Andreas,
My bad!! I don't know why I wrote 3 cents - I meant USD 3.00. Would that be crazy? That would be higher than the one you mentioned. [/quote]
Hi Natalia,
No, that would not be crazy. It is roughly what I usually charge (not the bare minimum, which I wrote in my first reply). And said bare minimum is something that I would only consider, if I were to get a long term contract with a considerable number of monthly hours for myself and the freelancers I work with.
It all depends on a lot of things. What kind of material are you working on, how many minutes are you getting, is it straight from the source or are you working for a company which gets their material from another company which gets it from another and so on. There are plenty of companies out there who take offers from others who don't want to handle the work themselves.
In my opinion one can't give a plain and simple answer to the question and the actual question is ... what is YOUR price and what do YOU work for. There are people who wouldn't even set their alarm for anything less than 15, some would work for less than what I charge. It all depends on the pricetag you put on your work.
