Someone is interested in one of my images. The image is not currently on iStock/Getty, of which I am still exclusive.

It is intended to be used for business logo, company business cards, employee uniform and website.

Can I license it privately as RM image? What is a fair price? Thanks for enlightening!

You should do it privately, since if you put it on IS, someone can't use it as a logo.

Sean, thanks a lot for your advice. I assume that the buyer will only use the image as a part of the logo, since I personally will not want my image to become someone's trademark or registered trademark. I will ask. Thanks for pointing that out.

Any suggestions as to pricing?

If they want a restrictive license then charge accordingly.

Very hard to make a guess for someone else given that no one knows the amount of work, the specifics of the image, the customer, the license terms etc.

If you want a blind guess: Not below four digits. Somewhere in the range of $3,000 - $5,000 is not unheard of if we are talking about a serious business. Obviously that will be heavily overpriced if we are talking about the local public library in your village.
