    If we were doing that banner we would sell it for around the £200 mark

    £300 (at least)

    I’d make the stroke a bit wider on the lower text to bring out from the background a bit more too.

    I don’t really get involved with digital very much, I know I should but looking at Ians price it seems awefully cheap to me.
    Not saying you don’t know your market Ian you obviously do and as I already said I don’t know very much at all, but there seems to be a lot of work in that banner for very little return if its going to cost Steve £80 to get printed.
    Out of interest Steve how long did it take you in total to do?

    Hi folks..
    Have to say having read the original thread again I did not include design time and use of own photos so £260+ would be nearer the mark…

    I’d use a thirds rule principle if youre unsure on pricing, ie 1/3rd materials 1/3rd labour 1/3rd profit hence minimum charge is £240 maybe more you know whats gone into it labour wise.
