    I deal with two different clientele. Commercial and online. The commercial you can obviously charge more $100 an hour for logo, layout, design, etc. For online printing, our prices are very reasonable to stay competitive with the competition. You might want to try $50 for design plus your print cost. We have a partner program if interested.

    It is impossible to give you an exact amount to charge because everyone has different situations such as skill level and resources. But this is generally how you would price something. Well first you have to set a price for your design time such as $x/hr, do this by your skill level. Then, price the printing according to who you are using. I don't know who you might use to print but maybe try to find a wholesale printer so that you can charge retail. Add both together and there's your price.

    You want to start by working out roughly how much it will cost you for that design per business card. Take in account of your time working on it, cost of ink, card, etc. Then you need to decide how much profit and how competitive to others you want to be. Whether you want to be seriously competitive and make profit just enough to cover your costs, or be daring and make about 50% profit. The choice is yours really, but the cheaper you do it, the more custom you're likely to have.

    At least $150. To cover the printing cost, and a bit of profit...
