This is a question I'm trying to answer for myself right now. What I know so far is that I want to stay small (never more than one other designer, a bookkeeper and a new biz manager); partially because I just like the vibe of a small studio, and partially because it means less overhead and the ability to crush my competition on price, all while ensuring the work is still lucrative for me.
As far as pricing, I charge what I think the market can bear, based on national data, for someone with my skill set and experience.
Is that a business model? I'm an intellectual service company. I charge what I think the work is worth (well, I try to anyway). Does it need to be any more complex than that, for someone of my size and projected growth?
