Our Rates

The information below will give you a sense of how I price some of the work that I do.  This should help you decide whether we’re on the same page in terms of pricing.

Keep this in mind. Whatever your project is, I’ll want to give you a specific quote for that specific project. To get the exact fee, for your project, please email me. At that point, I’ll work up a fixed-price proposal.  Download a copy of the Lucid Content rate sheet
