# Pricing

> Two ways to hire an independent brand designer in Lisbon: a monthly retainer at €6,400 or a fixed quote for one project, with plain answers on payment and terms.

## By the month, or by the project.

**Start in any month.** Agree the scope, send briefs as they come, and go through the drafts together every week.

### Monthly retainer: €6,400 / month

**A set monthly fee for your regular brand and print requests.** Suits teams that send work every week.

- One request in progress at a time
- First drafts the same week
- Brand, packaging, and print
- A weekly review call
- Source files with every delivery
- Rolling monthly terms

### One-off project

**A fixed quote for one identity, range, or campaign.** Scoped on a call and priced before work starts.

- Price agreed up front
- Print and web files
- Handover to your printer
- A month of support

## Prices, terms, and invoices.

**What you pay, when, and what it covers.** Anything else is on the FAQ page, or ask me directly.

### How do you price a project?

Every project gets a fixed price, set from a written scope before work starts. The scope lists each deliverable, so you can see exactly what the price covers.

### When do I pay?

A project is paid in two parts: half to book the dates, the rest on delivery. The retainer is billed at the start of each month. Bank transfer and card both work.

### What does the monthly retainer cover?

Brand, packaging, and print requests, one at a time, with first drafts the same week and a weekly review call. Websites and large launches are quoted as separate projects.

### Can I stop the retainer?

Yes. Terms roll month to month: tell me before the next billing date and the following month is not invoiced. Open requests are finished and handed over first.

### What if the scope changes?

We agree on the change in writing before any extra work starts, with its own price and dates. Small adjustments inside the agreed scope cost nothing extra.
