Hey hey wonderful narrators! I'm curisous what people charge when post production is handled by the client. Do you typically stick with $250 or do you go lower since they are doing all of the post work? Thanks friends!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh defo change your rate for post or no post! That is HOURS of work! I would say consider $250 for your full production rate on ACX, if we work together to keep the base pay to SAG standard, it helps everyone! Even if you have the NHS in the UK, you are worth that rate!
If I am only narrating Punch and Roll files - $190 to $250 pfh
If I am narrating and proofing and editing and mastering! DEFO - $300 pfh. (I out source all that so I can focus on narrating, so I pay my lovely Post-Production chappy $75 pfh, that leaves me $225 for the narration).
If someone asked me for my narration only rate I would say $225 pfh, but I would say that I might be flexible depending on the project.
I tend to find though that publishers will include the PFH in the audition breakdown, and tend to be grumpy if you negotiate after getting the offer. Better to say as you send in the audition if you would prefer a pay bump.
YAY!! Congrats on starting to work with publishers! That is so exciting!!!
