I am curious why quote per hour when charging for work and then break it down into slots of 15 minutes? please can someone clear that up. thanks

Someone probably has a more professional way to break this down but I'll give it a shot

You quote hourly because that's the standard (Your client asks how much it costs to work with you and you reply X$ per hour) but you bill in increments [either fifteen, or some people bill on a six minute increment, etc.] because maybe a project takes one and a half hours. Or, one hour and thirty two minutes [you'd round down to 1.5 hours]. You don't charge for two full hours there, so it's important to have some incremental way to bill. Some VAs do charge by the minute.

Does that help at all, or did I confuse you more?

Yes that makes much more sense. Thank you - I would have done that automatically but I now see why this would need to be explained especially to clients, and it would make life easier

Great Question and a very helpful answer! I was wondering the same thing!
