Hi @KThakur1, This is a great question to leverage generative AI for: > * * * > > - Research the market > Look at what other freelancers or small agencies in India charge for similar services. This will give you a realistic range. > > - Start with hourly or project-based pricing > > - Package your services > Offer 2–3 tiers to make it easier for clients to choose. > Example: > > - Adjust based on value and demand > As you build results and client testimonials, gradually raise prices. Clients pay more for proven outcomes than for effort alone. > > - Be clear about deliverables > Always define what’s included: number of posts, revisions, meetings, and timelines. This prevents misunderstandings and helps justify your price. > > - Consider retainer models > Once you have regular clients, move to a monthly retainer for consistent income (for example, ₹30,000–₹80,000 per month for social media and branding management). > > * * * Hope this helps!
