超哥短评:
2007年乔治亚州的萨凡纳艺术设计学院毕业(3年的学习)。接下来2008-2017年都有全职的设计师、产品设计、工业设计的工作。
2017年开始进行完全的自由职业。
但我们看到他在Upwork的历史已经很久了,从2009年2月开始,已经接单。
最早期大都是一些几十元、几百元的小单,甚至还有修图之类的业务,全都用固定费率方式收费。
2013年在平台基本没有什么活动,但从2014年开始继续活跃,收费方式也开始结合固定费率和小时费率。从2014-2018年,小时费率不太稳定,但基本在$65-150/hr之间。
从2018年开始,超过2000美金的大单越来越多。
最大的两个项目,都是去年接到的,都还没结束。
这是他的作品。
让我们来看看他的其他大单,超过10000美金的项目就不少,而且大都是2018-2019年接到的。
2018年8月之后,他把小时费调整到了$200/小时,之后基本按照新的价位执行,这让自己的收入得到了进一步的提升。
2017年估算收入大约5万美金。
2018年估算收入大约15万美金。
2019年估算收入大约20万美金。
2020年至今(不到五个月)收入已经超过10万美金。
给中国工业设计师有什么启示呢?
首先,工业是可以有非常高的收费潜力的。
客户为什么花大价钱买单?
“create things beyond expectations"-超越期待
“communication was top-notch"-沟通能力一流
“delivered on time"-准时交付
“they understood my requirements from business and technical standpoint"
另外,根据客户评价,我们看到,David有的项目可能有助手Scott之类的人物帮忙。
对于中国的工业设计师来说,也是有很大机会走向世界的。
在全球,有更多的机会,有更高费率的项目在等着你。
工业设计本身是可以跨越国境的,如果你有足够好的设计能力,那么,可以挑战一下自己。
语言能力是可以提升的,文化差异是可以学习的……连那么难的工业设计你都会了,为什么不更进一步呢?
David拿到了200美金/小时的费率,认真算一算,你现在在收什么样费率?
如果想得到进一步提升,欢迎留言,或者找我聊一聊。
