Hi everyone
I've recently started to spread the word that I'm available for copywriting (after being made redundant as a journalist) and someone's just contacted me and asked how much I'd charge to provide the copy for a website, and some other promotional material.
I was planning to work for free for while, but he seems willing to pay me so I wanted to take the chance to earn a little bit, but I dont really know how much to charge.
Do you charge per word or per document/project? A set fee? A fee per day, and give an estimate as to how much time it should take? How is this normally done? I dont want to charge loads and price myself out.
Hope someone can help me! I need to go back to him today. I suppose I could take a closer look at the work he requires and then send him a quote?
Help!!!
