My fee structure and terms are
simple and straightforward for most
projects:
|
Service |
Rate |
What I do |
| Editing |
$65 - $85/hour
(dependent upon technical level of
information and type of editing) |
Proofreading for
spelling, grammar, and accuracy;
restructuring in part or whole for improved
readability (including plain
language) and updates.
May include activities
associated with updating where
no original copy or concepts are
required. Auditing of existing
documentation against quality
system standards and regulatory
requirements for the purpose of
improvements is also available
within this fee range. |
| Business
Communications and Copywriting |
$100/hour or
$1/word Flat rates can be negotiated
for standard formats such as
brochures, pamphlets, and
newsletters. |
Most client costs
are associated with development
of original creative
concept/theme and production of
marketing collateral prior to
printing. May also be associated
with narrative scripts or
narration used in conjunction
with PowerPoint presentations,
time working with graphic
designer, HTML authoring, or
additional work associated with
client initiated changes to the
project. |
| Science and
Medical Writing |
$100/hour or
$1/word Flat rates are charged for
news reporting, and can be
negotiated for magazine and
custom consumer publications.
|
Conference
attendance and reporting,
journal article reviews,
articles/stories for the
consumer. |
| Documentation |
$85/hour contract
work fee
Flat rates can be negotiated
for projects estimated to run
above 40 hours. |
Client costs are
associated with the development
of written documentation to
agreed specifications, using
either a created or client
document template. |
For all projects, the initial
consultation to determine project scope and
requirements is free. Two
rounds of revisions are included for
each project, with additional rounds
billed at my hourly rate. For projects
that require travel or more than 40
hours of work, I require a third of the
estimated project cost up front to begin. The balance of the
project fee is due after product
delivery and client acceptance.
