If this is the case, and I must bid a fixed rate, the usual practice has been to add 10% to 25% to the estimated cost, and that's the fixed fee. Even so, it's still always based on hourly rates, otherwise you're not really doing this as a business but as a hobby. (Not a bad thing, but you gotta know which one you are!) FWIW, I seem to bill most of my jobs as one of these "hourly, yet with a very firm estimate on the hours" kinda jobs, especially lately, when business is tight. (Although, with any luck I'll sign a 6 month deal next week, 40-60 hours/week at $90/per, working from home, drool drool. :-) Your pal, -doc- [url=http://www.ozones.com/] [img]http://www.ozoneasylum.com/examples/ozoneSIGc.gif[/img] [/url] Loading...
