Such a struggle though!!

I think under the current market
thats wise.
Check all others that can do your design /editing
and what they charge.
Under Cut them
with the same level as them.


There is room for loads like you
as you can be from online.

Going cheaper
than the local company
just to get your foot in the door,

You have Talent
Believe in yourself.


Good Luck Jonnii
