"A must have for freelance artists!" according to Michael Robin Cooke. This book is close to a 'must have' for freelancers. It delivers the message that you can't price your services too low or you help to bring down pay rates for everyone. It doesn't exactly solve the problem of freelancers not based in big cities that can't find clients to pay the rates NYC ad agencies will pay.It has a lot of very useful information for all kinds artists, and it can inspire considering art fields you aren't yet involved in.. Kanisorn S. said everything you need. It's a great book for graphic artists and illustrators. Everything you really need to know about how to go about your practice, including all the pricing, legal side, and how to deal with problems. The only downside is it's quite dry. I'm an artist and quite easily distracted so it takes me a while to go through it. Also, some of the wordings could be better because sometimes if you're not business oriented it could take you a while to understand. but overall i'd really recommend it. Fantastic book for any graphic designer Fantastic book for any graphic designer. It's filled with price suggestions and is very detailed about handling the business side of the creative industry. Also has contracts. This is an absolute must have for any graphic designer!
