Calculate your rate
Price the work

Prepare payment

How will clients pay me?

Compare payment routes, cost layers, eligibility, conversion, and withdrawal options.

Build the foundation in the right order.

A profile cannot fix an unclear offer. A client cannot fix a price that loses money.

  1. Position

    Choose one useful outcome.

    Describe the result, buyer, boundaries, and evidence you can show.

  2. Price

    Know your minimum sustainable rate.

    Separate revenue, business expenses, reserves, and personal income.

  3. Protect

    Define scope before revisions begin.

    Write deliverables, exclusions, timeline, revision limits, and change pricing.

  4. Deliver

    Create a repeatable client process.

    Confirm the brief, communicate progress, store approvals, and close cleanly.

  5. Collect

    Prepare invoices and payment routes.

    Agree on currency, timing, fees, withdrawal, and proof of payment.
