Had an artist put an idea of mine to pen and he's amazingly good. Wanted at least $25, I gave him $100 and still felt I underpaid him.

So far the people I have met who say "bro" all the time have not been people I would want to have met.

but Bro! I can't accept that bro!

Maybe he's a Slowbro Pokemon who learned to talk, but still can't quite get himself to not say his own name while speaking!

Is there a proven ROI on influencers? Are they truly that powerful that businesses eat costs for an instagram post?

6 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

I've heard that there's something but you got to have millions of followers or subscribers.

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Some yah, but generally theyd be succesful enough for ppl to come to them for exposure, not using it as an excuse to beg for free/cheap stuf

6 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

I dont have research but in short if you are successful enough to be worth it people come to YOU. If you are asking you are too small.

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

On a small scale, most “influencers” will charge you about $200-300 for a post which is quite cheap if you have no other sources of traffic

6 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Facebook/Google Ads will usually cost more in the long run with testing your ad copies etc. That’s when you’re just starting out tho

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Some of them are worth it, if your product or service is designed on their following genre. High end hotels when followers are 15-17y, no

Yeah, that’s what I mean. I always use phalanx before I get in touch with anyone.

I wanna find the guy that charges $1300 for web, app, and backend dev

6 years ago | Likes 137 Dislikes 0

Sounds to me like an auto-install of WordPress or similar. Takes an hour w/o any sort of coding.

6 years ago | Likes 14 Dislikes 18

He said build the back end, build the front end and sub-contract the design. And it would be about 40 hours work.

6 years ago | Likes 20 Dislikes 0

That's what I would say too to justify the $$.

6 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 5

I charge 80 an hour, 40h work would at least be 3k, and im not even expensive in my field, for these rates better of working fastfood

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

No you're not expensive. I go for 115-120

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

RIGHT? I've had to self teach myself SQL for my lab's database and 1300 is an absolute insane bargain.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

I got the ones whose competency is at that level, but they sure as H charge more than that. We call them "partners". >_<

Isn’t that 600 or 1000$, depending on “artsy style”. And was offered stock options, with good idea and plan, would sound like a decent deal

He's charging McDonalds employee bucks for Chef-de-partie work. Either he's bad at his job, lying about his work or a very bad businessman.

I’d go with bad business man, most programmers don’t understand business that well, source: me at my 20’s. What you mean taxes, etc costs?
