Ask for discounts: Find out if your caricature artist gives discounts based on number of hours or other factors. For example, SocalToons Caricatures offers discount rates for referrals. Phoenix Caricature Company offers a deal if customers purchase four hours, shaving $15 off the hourly rate for paper caricatures and $25 off the hourly rate for digital caricatures. She Draws You of Mesa, Arizona, offers $10 off its $100 hourly rate for paper caricatures if customers purchase four hours.
Choose paper and skip the colors: Color images and access to digital caricatures can increase the price. Cut costs by opting for black and white, paper images. These offer all the same party benefits at a fraction of the cost.
