It's easy to get started.
Estimates
Before the “meter” starts running, we'll agree upon a project price or price range, a rate for ongoing work, or an allowable number of hours. The price is based on the project scope, deliverables and deadline; the time and effort required to obtain needed information and draft copy; and the review/approval process.
Information needed for estimating
Expect to discuss the following:
- The project, materials to be created or types of support needed
- Your deadline/timeframe
- Are we creating something new from scratch? Editing or building on existing communications? Proofing something already written?
- Sources of information — existing content and materials, interviews, online research
Pricing
Fees are established up front. Typical arrangements for charges:
- By the project
- By the hour
- By the month (retainer)
- By the budget — or plea for mercy
