For a beginner, this is one of the most difficult tasks in balloon decorating: calculating the "right" price for your design. There are two ways to do this. One is a proper calculation, taking into account direct costs, business overhead and profit margin. The other one is a rough estimate, where you simply add up all your direct costs, and charge 2,5 times of your direct costs.
The simple method looks like this: Direct Costs x 2,5 = Selling Price Example: $100 x 2,5 = $250 Selling Price whereby Direct Costs = All materials and labor needed to complete the job
