Welcome along to the forums!

There's a thread (or eight) on the subject of pricing, so please make use of the search facility :)

Dude.

There's a whole bunch of topics on pricing but it always comes down to the same advice.

RATE = C+W+P

Where:

C=COSTS, ie what it costs you (overheads, tax & NI, depreciation)
W=WAGES, ie hours on site for you and any helpers * hourly rate you want to pay
P=PROFIT, ie amount of profit you want to make from the job

W and P are easy; it's C that new businesses struggle with because they don't yet have a handle on their true overheads. Don't underestimate!

Simples ;)

Why is there not a newbies FAQ section yet? Or also a link to "Im new post section after registering?"

Would be really useful for people starting out that just need basic info. there would be so much sticky stuff all over this site eligible?
