Pricing and Packaging Guide
Mint Studio Pricing Introduction
Every project is different, and these prices are designed as clear guides to help you understand what your content may require. Some pieces take less time, some take more — your quote will always reflect the true scope of your project.
Mint Studio provides editing, refinement, and professional guidance, but does not offer ghostwriting. All content must be written by the client before editing begins.
Additional surcharges may apply for urgent turnarounds (20%), weekend work (15%), after‑hours work (15%), or public holiday work (75%).
All quotes include up to three major structural revisions; beyond that, a new quote will be issued so your project stays clear, predictable, and professionally managed.
Your content remains your intellectual property at all times and is never shared with anyone other than you.
