I would recommend reading this book...
http://abookapart.com/products/d…I've just started up on my own after 15 years agency side.
Everything you do for a client, prospective or current should be billed. This includes meetings. Your time is valuable.
Always take a business approach. What we do isn't creative magic. It's work. And your experience dictates how much you charge.
Good brand work transforms businesses. We know more about effective business than most CEOs.
Get paid. And good luck.
