"The problem with the design industry is that there exists no standard rate for the jobs and such rates will be also handled as a top secret."
There is not a single industry, in the entire world....where one thing costs one amount.
Fuck even the grocery store has different prices on fruit depending on how fresh or rotten it is.
Depending on how "fresh" or "rotten" the designer is, they charge different rates.
How are rates determined? Are they often pulled out of peoples asses? YES. But guess what, we have this nice little thing, maybe you've heard of it...it's called the free market. I could charge $300/hour but that doesn't mean the market will bear that much. I won't get hired.
Go back to Econ 101.
