Good Reads:  The Dark Art of Pricing by Jessica Hische. This article is a bit long but awesome, and there are tons of designers out there who can benefit from this advice. I cringe when I see designers who list prices on their sites (a bad idea in my opinion) offering up logos with unlimited revisions (also bad!) for incredibly low prices. So hopefully this will reach those who need to be exposed to this information, and in turn we can begin to take small steps to raise the standards in our industry.
