Description:
Freelance
jobs come in all types and sizes. As a successful freelancer, you must know how
to charge the right rate for the job and also be wary of any jobs that might be
exploitative. There’s a science to it, you don’t need to guess. The right
quoting rate can be calculated by first calculating the minimum required rate
(MMR) which is (Your total expenses)/(Total hours to work) and then looking at
the Market Rate which is what others are charging on the website for similar
jobs. Your quote should be between both these rates. To identify high risk
assignments there are some tricks. High risk assignments have undisclosed
submission dates, they push you for hourly rates only and they are given by an
unrated client.
