Episode 15 tackles calligraphy pricing… If you are not quite sure how to price your work, then I encourage you to give this episode a listen. Listen, we are all likely not pricing our services effectively. I liken calligraphers to “unicorns” as we are unique creatures with an unbelievable demeanor, attention to detail and amazing talent.
I want us all to be able to confidently state our pricing and live with the consequences… It is the only way we and our businesses will continue to scale.
