I get 1.5k as an acd, so I’d probably try for 1.8 or even 2k.

2k!

Friendly reminder that only about 5% of all freelance CDs get that 1.8-2k/ rate. Be realistic, don’t set up people for disappointment.

You then must be on top 5%, ACD and CD2. Well deserved. People here easily boast that freelance is a goldmine. But not everyone will succeed in this game—and especially in getting those rates. Care disclosing where you’re contracting, recent past or present?

Always go high. Most freelance CDs end up doing the work and overseeing it.

Holy moly those rates are so much higher than Chicago

It’s $1400-$1600 unless you’re super well known.
