Prices for Greenslade Creations
My working rate is AUD$40 per hour*
I am willing to negotiate for certain kinds projects, eg. long term projects or those for academic purposes and non-profit organisations.
My email marketing packages are different to the hourly rate structure because they also incorporate the cost for the email marketing software I use. Search engine optimisation reports are also on their own pricing structure because of the extensive and ongoing research I have to perform in order to maintain this service.
Consulting and Training
I am currently only available for consulting and training in Brisbane and Logan and on certain days of the week. If your project is substantial and reliable, I may consider travelling elsewhere in south east Queensland. Please phone me on 0403 124 533 to discuss.
My on site consulting rate is $20 per hour or part thereof* and generally consists of preliminary meetings to determine the best outcome and plan for your project. It is my lowest hourly rate as a favour to you, and because it usually leads to an ongoing training contract or marketing project.
My training and project management rate is $30 per hour or part thereof*
Stock images
If your project requires rights managed images to be purchased, you can either take care of that yourself or I will add the cost to my invoice and bill you for the time required to download the images and/or correspond with rights holders. I recommend
sxc.hu, wikipedia and morguefile for free images and stockxpert/iStockphoto, canstockphoto and crestock for cheap, high quality stock graphics.
Value for money
It is very important to me that I provide you with outstanding value for money. I understand that you do not wish to outlay more than you need to for your marketing activities and that you want to see a strong return on investment. If, at any time you feel that my work is not up to the standard required by your organisation and for the price you pay, please let me know. Please bear in mind that part of what you are paying for is my software and hardware as well as communication, printing and other operating costs.
