Choose the right category
The programme, advertising and media row is a monthly employee minimum. It is not a price list for an article, campaign, shoot or use of creative work.
Questions to settle before accepting
For assignments, define deliverables, revision rounds, equipment, travel and payment milestones. For employment, clarify evening coverage, weekend shifts and ownership terms in the contract.
Make a fair comparison
Compare the time needed for research, production and revisions as well as the visible deliverable. An assignment fee cannot be labelled a monthly salary.
