Get quotes from the level of design companies that you are competing against, and charge below the average. Then, when you get more well known and have built a portfolio of work, you should charge more.

Note that this is just my common sense business info, I'd expect graphic design to work like it too but don't take anything i've said as fact.

i think you should charge $5 and let me be your first client.
(Im looking for a new logo for my company.)
I got quoted by one freelance designer $300 because i did him a favour but he usually charges $900.
Thats all in Australian $$.
If you are new start off a bit cheaper to establish a clientelle, do good work and your business will grow.
