Artists & fursuit makers: Stop shortchanging yourselves!
4 years ago
I don't post much, but this came up in discussion on a local Telegram chat so I thought I'd share it here.
Many artists and makers shortchange themselves with a discount/consumer-goods pricing mentality, and when overhead and labor time is factored in end up working for less than minimum wage.
It’s insane to have a queue deeper than one or two weeks' worth of work. If your work is in that much demand, keep raising prices. You’ll get rid of the pesky cheapskates and end up with a customer base who truly values your work. You’ll build up enough savings that you’ll be able to take some time off to recharge between commissions, and your work will be even better for it.
