i have this friend of mine who is a web developer. he's doing a cd-rom presentation for some company, and he has aked me to make him a song for it. he asked me this morning to work out how much i want to charge for it. and well, i said i have no idea. he said a few hundred bucks, bit it seems a bit much. i know he'll just add it to the bill, and im also of the understanding that he makes a fair bit of dosh from these freelance things. but yeah. what to charge? anyone done anything like this before? any ideas on how much to charge? im guessing the going rate for cd-rom developement to be around $60/hr. and i was thinking i could charge maybe $20/hr. which meens i would probably get around $100. anyway, just wondering if anyones got any ideas on the subject? ps: im fairly excited by the whole idea of being paid to write a song. |

take the money! :) I know it's not exactly going on a national ad campaign, but still, considering how much you would get for something like that, taking a few hundred for it seems fairy snuff to me! |

a few hundred $$$ from a company that can obviously afford it without batting an eyelid so a musician can use it to maybe buy some equipment or something is AOK in my book....it's not like you're Moby, selling out and that! |

take half of what he is offering, you won't seem stupid but you won't seem greedy --> i did for having a trak on a compilation that sold 1400 copies. <--- mention this so that he really thinks that you are worth the money |

sounds okay. why shouldn't you take what he's offering? he seems to think you're worth it, so how would you be greedy taking it..? nice. |
