Want to hire a flyer designer? I’ve worked in the graphic design industry for decades, and still to this day flyer designers are some of the most in-demand freelancers out there.

Whilst I typically write with freelancers as my audience, today I’m turning the tables to help business owners find flyer designs online and nearby.

But first, there are a few key points we need to cover. There are many types of flyer designers with many different styles; just as there are many types of illustrators, musicians, and events.

So whether you’re looking for party flyer designers or someone to make a flyer for your business, in this post I’ll outline key considerations to help you hire the right designer first time round and avoid countless hours of wasted time and energy.

First things first: what is your budget?

I have worked in the flyer design business for many years. In my time I have produced over a thousand flyer designs for hundreds of different clients.

One of the most common questions I am asked by friends and clients alike is: “How much does a flyer design cost?”. My response is almost always the same: “How long is a piece of string?”.

There are tens of thousands of graphic designers who identify as flyer designers; meaning they focus almost entirely on printed flyer designs.

Amongst these thousands of flyer designers you’ll find any price: from $10 to over $1,000. Yes, you read that correctly: there are designers who charge over a grand for a flyer design, and there are clients who happily pay it.

Before trying to hire a flyer designer, make sure you have a budget in mind. Knowing how much you have to spend — whether that’s $20, $50, $150 or more will help narrow down the best places to find a designer that suits your budget.

What is your project?

Just as important as figuring out your budget, you need to know exactly what your design project entails. Do you only need a flyer design? Or do you want social media graphics, posters, tickets and other branded materials as well?

It’s very important you tell your designer everything you need at the beginning of your project so the designer can properly plan their designs. Few things are more frustrating than a client who asks for more work after the fact, and keeping a good relationship with your designer is essential.

Additional design work will also increase the cost of your project, so make sure you factor this into your budget. Do not ask your designer for additional work once the flyer design is complete and expect the extra work for free.

How much does a flyer design cost?

Typically a one-sided flyer design costs around $50–60 US dollars, with double-sided flyer designs starting at around $75 US dollars.

Young or inexperienced designers may charge less, likewise expect to pay experienced designers $100 or more. According to this post on graphic designer earnings, experienced designers and art directors can get rather expensive.
