today’s bissett bullet: “how often do you sense-check your proposals against previous projects? you have a wealth of information at your disposal. before you present your solutions to a prospective client, do your research.”
by martin bissett
does a precedent exist? how much did you charge clients in the past for the same work and more importantly, did you achieve an acceptable level of profitability as a result? did you allow for everything you delivered or was there a degree of scope creep and in hindsight, did you price that work correctly?
remember to take into account changes in your own circumstance as well as inflation, the benefit of the experience you have gained and any professional development you have subsequently undertaken.
today’s to-do:
check a recent proposal against something similar in the past. how do the fees compare? would you quote differently bearing in mind the above?
