Why Creatives Struggle With Pricing (And How To Charge Appropriately)

Pricing your creative work can be one of the hardest parts of running a creative business. You know the time, skill and effort that goes into your work, but when it is time to tell a client or customer how much you charge, you suddenly start questioning yourself. “Is this too expensive?” “Will they pay?” “What if they choose someone else?” “Am I even experienced enough to charge this much?” In this video, I’m breaking down why creatives struggle with pricing and the common mistakes that make creative business owners undervalue their work. I also share practical ways to think about pricing so you can stop guessing, stop comparing your prices to everyone else’s, and start charging what you're worth. Your creative work is a business. Pricing isn't just about picking a number that feels comfortable, it is about understanding what it costs to deliver your work and setting a price that lets your business survive and grow.
