[LFP][5e][Paid] 9 year DM - Module Campaigns!

Hi guys! My name is White Spades, or Silver Spades on here. I started playing in early 2011 with 3.5e with a group of friends. I quickly became a forever DM and switched to 5e in about 2015. I am going to touch on some topics and ask some questions that I am going to leave below. If you feel that you want to contact me about what I do, how often I play, and pricing....It should all be included below but feel free to send me a private message! Q: How often will you be DMing? A: Right now just one day a week, Unless I get enough to be able to make this my full/part time job. Q: How long will each session be? A: I am debating about it based on how many people want to play! In order to be able to afford to do this as even a part time job, I will have to limit it! I believe that about 3 hours per session should be good. I may change pricing for longer games. Q: What is your pricing? A: I am planning on group prices vs individual prices and then per session vs per month. Message me or comment below on what you think is fair pricing. Q: Do you do one shot adventures? A: Not preferably. I like long adventures that take place once a week or twice a month depending on party availability. I can always do one shots, but they are priced differently. Q: What official modules have you run? A: I used to be a homebrew DM making custom games and maps. Now I have run Descent into Avernus and Rime of the Frost Maiden most of the time. Q: Why should I pay you? A: I have a good voice, lots of experience, and care about rule 0 more than anything. That is have fun! This is not adventure league so will tweak it to fit the party! I have over 9 years of experience (still got some to learn but have  handled a lot of crazy adventurers due to crazy players and murder hobos). At this point I just have questions for you guys! What would you like to see available, what would you pay for a long campaign , and if you generally play with a group already available how often do you play? I used to do $1 per hour of gameplay per person. However this did not make it enough for me to do this as a living. I love Dungeons & Dragons and would love to be able to both: do this as a job as well as teach others the joy of this fantastic roleplaying game. Like I said above, please comment on what you think, as well as what you think a fair price would be. I know that a few other DMs that I know are getting about $200 per group per month and only runs 1 group. I want to run multiple groups on multiple days. I just need to know if this is a feasible option and if I am being fiscally responsible by charging the right price to pay bills. I know that last bit got a bit personal and am going to digress. Please comment below! I am more than happy to answer any questions! Signed, DM Spadez
Hi there, I think $15 a session at first would be good, and then see where the players are after a few months? If someone is worth it to me, I'd be willing to pay extra for their time, or even chip into a Patreon/Ko.fi. That might be a good place to just try and see if you can pay one bill consistently? This is coming from someone who DMs for free, but it looking to pay someone to DM just so I can play somewhat hassle free.

I did it to pay for stuff I wanted a while ago, but would love to have do so with a group that is down to play!
