Default Fair Rate
Hi Gang,

I have a potential data entry project involving a large directory. I'm not sure what to charge on this; I usually charge by the hour.

I'd like to know what is considered a fair rate per entry. (I don't want to over charge, but need to consider what's fair in regards to my time.

If you have a range you could suggest I'd appreciate it. Or any other suggestions would help too.

Please IM me A.S.A.P. I need to give them my price range this afternoon.

Thanks so much.

Default Re: Fair Rate
Hi Joni,
I'm curious if you ended up charging for this per-entry or per hour?
If it had been my decision to make I would ultmately charge per hour - but let us know what worked for you?

Hi Tess,

This project actually was put on hold by potential client. They hope to move forward again in a month or two. So, I actually didn't decide on what to do, but I was considering by the entry because the amount was large.
