Wie strukturiert man als Freiberufler die Preisgestaltung am besten?

I believe rate per word(RPW) is most appropriate way depending upon the complexity and urgency of project Hourly pay can put both client and freelancer in trouble as everyone's speed of writing may vary. It is best to understand the requirements of the client and then quote price. For example- A client demanding 700 words promotional blog in 1 hour cannot be charged same as a client who wants the same project to be done in 2 days time. - Deadline - Complexity - Information available All these factors contribute to the price that is quoted to a client and it is difficult to be kept flat.

There are a TON of benefits and drawbacks to each and every pricing structure. (I’m actually working on a post deep-diving into this exact topic, so look out for that! 👀) In my experience, however, project or package-based pricing is the most beneficial overall. That’s because of the winning combination of: - A clear, defined scope of work. - Ensured compensation for all facets of the project. - The ability to restructure the contract based on the needs of you and your client. That said, there is no “perfect” way to base your pricing. Try a combination, mess around with structuring, and eventually you’ll find what fits your needs the most! ✨

Hourly pricing allows a freelancer to charge for their time, but they have to be detailed and account for their time to prevent scope creep and micromanaging. A client may feel that the project can be completed in a more timely fashion. Project based pricing is rewarding but requires more research with regards to how many hours have to be dedicated to the project and requires extensive planning. Most free lancers can move to project based after using the hourly model from experience. The project may require additional time to complete but over all is the most effective in my professional opinion.

Project-based pricing is better because the cost of time taken for generating expertise ( say 20-30 years) has to be charged for the consultancy as problem-solving is a technique to be evolved through oversight, hindsight and foresight. It is not an hourly physical work.

La tarification à horaire est plus flexible et transparente en fonction des avantages et des résultats que votre travail génère pour vos clients, tels que l’augmentation du trafic, des conversions ou des revenus. j'ai toujours une préférence particulière au système anglo-saxonne qui paie par heure. Mieux vaut être variable, variable selon votre tache consignée et une augmentation conséquente selon votre efficacité avec une exécution de tache efficiente

It should include both and needs to be discussed with the client before purchasing any tools and softwares. Value based pricing is the best option to go for.

Transparent communication is key to managing additional expenses effectively. Excited to collaborate and deliver exceptional value to your project!

Pricing has to include cost-based and value-based pricing as well as uniqueness in problem-solving. Pricing structure might include a core level price for the company's products. The strategy might also incorporate discounts, sale prices and tiered pricing for different product levels. Pricing strategy involves setting different prices for the same product or service to different market segments based on the customers ability and willingness-to-pay. 

Some freelancers can charge their customers based on the value or cost of what they do. This is a method called price-based pricing. Value-based pricing is about how much a client gets from a freelancer's work. It looks at benefits and results for the customer, while cost-based prices are based on what it costs or time taken by freelancers to finish their work. Freelancers can make more money by setting prices based on what clients want and expect. This is called value-based pricing. And even though it might cost them a little extra, they get paid for their own work in an equal way known as cost-based pricing which lets freelancer cover costs while still making fair profit margins.

Start with a fixed approach and later on when you have more experience you cN incorporate variable if the work demands you to charge more. In case of any urgencies or different software purchased for a specific work.

Definitely a variable price is desirable depending on paying capacity of the buyer and the benefit the buyer gets out of the goods or service.

Don't be a freelancer-chameleon! While retainers offer stability, consider if you'll get creatively stifled. Remember that web designer who became a full-time social media manager? One-offs, on the other hand, bring variety, but can be feast-or-famine. Think about the freelance writer juggling 5 gigs at once. The sweet spot? Hybrid! Offer retainers with limited hours, leaving room for exciting one-offs. This way, you secure income while keeping your creative spark alive. Remember, a diverse portfolio attracts even better clients!

A retainer is cheaper for the contracting company whereas one-off is better for the consulting company. In any case, work has to be perfect in either condition to repeat contracts or for landing new contracts in consultation jobs.

I provide my services on month basis so I guess it can help freelancers to get assured monthly money. If they ask you for just one time service you can charge more higher.

Discounts and extras are always attractive to buyers and contractors and for repeating contractual work. Reducing contracted price giving valid reason and not as succumbing to bargaining tools may help the consulting company. If there is no expert in the contracting company (generally it is the case) the consultant can enhance price, but he or she should not cheat on quality of products and service.

Yes discounts can be provided but occasionally, Like if there's any festivals. You can share them discount for service or a newly launched service.

Communication and negotiation always sounds daunting but going through it all head-on can make even your words exude confidence and worth. And no matter what, the golden rule is to never allow undervaluation of your skills. If the haggling gets too much, respectfully decline.

Communication and negotiation are not as difficult as you think. This comes with building confidence. You know the price you charge goes along with the quality of your services. Establish a clear break up of your prices and communicate it clearly with your clients. Provide a proper reasoning and emphasize on the outcome your clients get. Negotiate with them and make them feel they're heard. Offer discounts and bundle your offer with a bunch of services to justify your price. The value you offer must always outsmart your prices. Clients love it🔥💯

Break down your services into clear packages or hourly rates. Be upfront about additional costs, and always communicate the value clients will get. Remember, flexibility is key! So be open to negotiating based on project specifics. It's like finding a sweet spot that feels fair for both you and your clients.

A lot of people say "project-based" is the best way to price a content freelancer. But that only works if you have lots of projects. You'll often encounter clients who don't offer projects. Instead they need lots of diverse little things done. Hourly can be better for that. Hourly can also be good if your work involves a lot of reading or listening. Value-based pricing is risky as a freelancer, because you're often dependent on the client's resources and infrastructure, and those might suck. But if you know the client is top-notch, it can work. There's no single way to be a freelancer.
