Pricing and Billing
Pricing and billing of services are based on the project or work. Please see “Terms and Conditions” for additional important information. It is always best to contact me so we can discuss your needs prior to me giving you a quote.
HOURLY BILLING:
This typically includes desktop publishing, word processing, general office work, letter writing, internet research, data entry, website maintenance, etc. Hourly billing is done in 15-minute increments after the minimum charge.
Hourly rate – $50 per hour with a one-hour minimum required.
PROJECT PRICING:
Office projects, such as mail merge or bulk mailings, are contracted on a “Per Project” basis. The specifications of your job will be reviewed, and a quote will be issued. Changes in the scope of work may result in changes in quoted price. A deposit is required before work commences. The amount will be determined based on the scope of the project.
Hours in excess of your contracted Monthly Retainer level will be billed at the discounted rate for your contracted level. Unused retainer hours will not be carried forward or refunded. Hours may be used in any increment throughout the current month.
General Terms and Conditions
A signed agreement/quotation will be REQUIRED BEFORE any work commences.
NOTE to FIRST-TIME CLIENTS: Immediate payment via Pay Pal is required upon completion of work PRIOR to release of work. Based on the customer payment history, I reserve the right to require payment in full upon completion of work prior to the release of work at any time.
ADDITIONAL BILLABLE ITEMS: Additional expenses may be incurred during the course of completion of your project, including, but not limited to, shipping or postage expenses, special software purchased at your request, etc.
Your invoice total will reflect those charges in addition to any hourly, retainer, or “per project” fees. Expenses are charged at cost.
RUSH/WEEKEND/HOLIDAY SERVICE: “Rush service” of 24 hours or less or weekend and/or holiday service will be subject to a 25% surcharge based on the final regular cost of work or project before the surcharge.
ILLEGIBLE OR POOR QUALITY RESOURCE MATERIAL: Illegible or poor-quality source material is subject to an additional 20% fee.
INVOICING: Invoices for monthly retainer services are sent two weeks before the first of the month and are due and payable before the first of the month for work to commence. Payment terms on balances due are strictly Net 7 upon delivery of the finished project for office assistant work performed using “Hourly” or “Per Project” billing. “Per-project” tasks require a deposit before the commencement of work. The amount of deposit may vary depending on the type of work.
ESTIMATE VS ACTUAL COST: All estimates are provided to the best of my ability following initial consultation and review of your project. The final invoice is based on actual project requirements. Differences in excess of 25% between estimated and actual costs will be discussed with the client prior to the completion of the work.
METHOD OF PAYMENT: Payment may be made via business check, personal check, money order, or PayPal. Returned checks subject to a $35 charge
ERRORS OR OMISSIONS: Final proofreading is the responsibility of the client upon acceptance of the work delivered. All errors reported within 24 hours will be corrected free of charge.
