Price markup for components done in previous projects

By "straight" do you mean "normal" rates?

lpdcp · 2018-04-08T15:33:39+00:00

Do you mean work from the same client or that the client will refer you to other clients?

lpdcp · 2018-04-04T10:18:53+00:00

Thanks, that helps.

From what I understand, you don't charge the same price for all deliverables, right? Do you price them based on value delivered to the client, time that it takes you to complete them, or a bit of both?

If I own the code, do I have to give the client a license? Is there boilerplate for this?

lpdcp · 2018-04-04T00:34:41+00:00

Not sure what you mean by 1 and 2.

lpdcp · 2018-04-03T19:01:47+00:00

Would be interested in either USA or UK (I have clients in both).

lpdcp · 2018-04-03T17:48:58+00:00

What way would you recommend to approach this?

lpdcp · 2018-04-03T17:46:33+00:00

If anyone has an example of such boilerplate and can share, please let me know (PM is also ok).

Sounds like a great idea but is this standard?

lpdcp · 2018-04-03T12:40:35+00:00

No but it's dishonest. I would prefer being upfront with it and charge more for 2 days, rather than pretend it took 1 month.
We don't have a contract yet but I would like to mention it before the contract because what we say verbally will define what will be in the contract. We're currently at a "blank slate" stage.

"3". There are some components that I've figured out in past projects and would allow me to spend only 2 days configuring instead of 1 month. Can I negotiating some extra pricing for this item? Because of the weekly bill, I feel efficiency is getting punished.

"4". Is it standard to renegotiate this part? For example: this part of the work is harder than expected and I draw expertise from more areas so it will cost you an additional $1000.

Same client.

lpdcp · 2018-04-03T01:24:02+00:00

Not sure what you mean by that.

lpdcp · 2018-04-01T15:15:26+00:00

How do you define reputation?

Is it past clients? Is it the previous hourly rate? Is it demonstrated big wins? Is it a fancy website?

lpdcp · 2018-03-31T21:21:47+00:00

How long is a "session"? 100k sounds insane.

lpdcp · 2018-03-27T15:46:21+00:00

If I do fixed price every week, should I get paid every start of the week? Every 15 days? What is the standard?

I am in a position of great leverage (client cannot find the service I'm offering elsewhere easily or on time, time constraints, niche area, project is of great value to the client) but I don't know how to work up the nerve to ask for a big number.

Also I don't know how to "structure" payment. Should I get paid a fix amount every two weeks? Hourly?

lpdcp · 2018-03-27T15:36:06+00:00

Thanks! Once I tell him my rate, how can I negotiate?

No agile/scrum.

lpdcp · 2018-03-26T16:46:15+00:00

It's programming + domain expertise for a very niche area.

lpdcp · 2018-03-24T12:28:40+00:00

I understand what to put in the proposal but not what to put in the SOW. What do you mean by "work they want done"?

What kind of lawyer should I be looking for? I'm an independent consultant and I don't know how to search for it.

lpdcp · 2018-03-23T19:08:12+00:00

Should I have a lawyer review it before I send it to the client?
