The Offset Podcast EP063: Pricing & Bidding A Job

In this episode of The Offset Podcast we're discussing how to determine your rate(s) and bid on a project.

Pricing, discounts, and proposals are challenging for many people - and lets face it - these topics while are important, are decidedly not the fun part of running a postproduction business.

In this show, we'll explore how we go about thinking about setting rates, building proposals, handling discounts and more. Some of the specific topics we discuss include:

• How your market, experience, overhead and perceptual goals all influence determining rates
• Picking a rate type - hourly, day or flat
• The importance of scoping to flat rates + having 'special' rates for evening and weekend work
• Building a rate card
• Building a project order/proposal & handling discounts
• Consistency in pricing
