In Reply to: Cost estimate for on-site work posted by Amanda GREY on May 03, 19100 at 15:01:28:
: A freelance translator FR-ENG, a potential client has asked me to cost on-site translation services (2 or 3 days a week for 2 months). They have no idea of the volume of work involved, so it is very difficult to give them an estimate. Should I charge a daily rate, or a rate per word translated???
: Thanks for any ideas.

Hi Amanda, I would charge by the day or hour for this kind of thing. Make sure you get paid once a month too, or they might drag it out until the end. Some projects have no end!
