The only way to price something is to: - get the proper requirements - make sure they are what the customer wants - write them up and get the client to sign it off - work out how long it will take you to do it - double it (because you always underestimate) - make sure the customer agrees that the time and price will rise if they make changes - decide how much each of your hours is worth - multiply the hours by the hourly rate - hold your breath while you give the number to your client - get half the money up front - get a proper contract between you signed - instruct a lawyer now because clients like to hold out on payment
