Join AIGA Maine in Portland for a Freelancers’ Roundtable on pricing!
About this Event

Freelancing is equal parts creative freedom and business hustle. One of the toughest questions we face is simple to ask but hard to answer: What should I charge?

Join AIGA Maine for our next Freelancers’ Roundtable: Money Talks—Pricing Demystified. Two expert panelists will share candid stories, strategies, and lessons learned about setting rates, negotiating with clients, and building a sustainable freelance practice.

This isn’t just for those breaking into freelancing—we invite seasoned creative entrepreneurs, too. Whether you’re freelancing full-time, side-hustling, or just freelance-curious, you’ll walk away with new ideas, peer support, and a stronger sense of community.


What to Expect:

🗣️ A relaxed, informal discussion with fellow freelancers

🧠 Real-world insights on pricing, client relationships, and contracts

💬 Small group conversations to swap strategies and stories

🍻 Light refreshments and plenty of networking


Who Should Attend?
  • Established freelancers looking to share and sharpen their approach
  • New freelancers seeking guidance and clarity
  • Freelance-curious creatives who want to explore the path
  • Small business owners who collaborate with freelancers

Come ready to chat, learn, and connect! Space is limited, so RSVP soon.

🎉 Free for AIGA Maine members! Watch for your discount code via email, or contact us to request one.
