Hi
I always find it difficult quoting on jobs.
I am an experienced magazine designer.
I have been asked to provide a quote to design two monthly magazines. One 60 pages and one 44 pages.
All imagery supplied. Approx 55% editorial. All adverts supplied print ready.
Final magazine to be output as print and an online version.
What would be a fair price for both parties!
Thank you

Hope that helps you - Contact in PM

Some people prefer to pay an hourly wage, while others will want a "stipend" amount to be paid upfront. Knowing this can really help us get an idea of what the employer is expecting/willing to pay.
Otherwise, Andrew has given an excellent breakdown of an appropriate pay scale.
