Is there a formula to calculate how much must be paid as a freelance writer?
I find work and sometimes I wonder how I or I have to make an offer. Is there a formula used to calculate the amount due?
Essentially, you need to find consistency between what we would take it worthwhile to do – while being a value to the company. I'd recommend giving them a total price of the piece instead of per hour. Some large coverage of this issue is here: http://writersdigest.com/article/flat-fees-vs-hourly-rates/
