Ask What is the best way to learn the going rate for a service in a field you are entering?

[Edward22]

When starting in a new field, pricing can feel confusing because there is no clear guide. Some people charge very high, while others go too low, and it is hard to know what is fair. I think understanding the market is important, but getting that information is not always easy. You do not want to underprice your work or scare clients away. How do you find out what others are charging and decide a rate that makes sense for your level?
