In today’s hyper-competitive alpha landscape, execution alone isn’t enough. Hedge funds that dominate are those who understand not just what they trade — but why they trade. This is where most institutional frameworks fall short: they lack introspection at scale. We built a proprietary system for hedge funds that captures, quantifies, and improves decision-making — giving your fund behavioral edge on top of analytical sophistication.
Setting your rates as a creative freelancer is more than just picking a number—it's about understanding and communicating your value. Many creatives undercharge because they focus solely on the time spent creating rather than the expertise, problem-solving, and unique perspective they bring.

Research, But Go Beyond Industry Standards
Start by researching industry standards, but don't stop there. Consider your experience level, specialized skills, and the results you deliver for clients. Remember that clients aren't just paying for your time; they're paying for your unique creative solutions that can transform their business.
Implement Value-Based Pricing
Try using value-based pricing for projects where your work will directly impact a client's bottom line. Ask about their goals and budget upfront, then price based on the value you'll provide, not just hours worked. This approach positions you as an investment rather than an expense.
“Your rates aren’t just a reflection of time spent—they represent the expertise, creativity, and impact you bring. Price for the value you create, not just the hours you work.”
Regularly Review and Adjust
Finally, regularly review and adjust your rates as you gain experience and expertise. Your growth deserves to be reflected in your compensation.
