Hello everyone
Am intending to button down some changes to my pricing and terms and conditions and wondered about feedback.
What has prompted this is the increase on clients asking for hourly rates as opposed to jobs rates.
Primarily I have increased my hourly rate to £35 (from £30) and proposed a one-off £50 charge for the first hour no matter what scope (I call it 'consultation'). Additionally for those jobs which are provided 'piecemeal' (ie small amends here, pause, more amends, pause, more amends) a flat £35 will be charged - the idea here is to get the client to provide an hours worth of amendments as opposed to 5 minutes. But if they do provide 5 mins worth of amends its £35.
Mercenary or just covering my bottom?
