Hello,

is there anyone out there that can guide me toward a tool for calculating an appropriate rate for new clients?

I am a VERY green aspiring PR/Copywriter and I have been asked for a rate a couple of times.

I believe I once saw an ASJA article about calculating rates, but I have not been able to find it since. Any clues out there would be greatly appreciated. :)

I'll be writing press releases and web copy as well as the occasional feature article.

Thanks!

Karen

You're probably referring to a chapter on business planning that I wrote for the ASJA Guide to Freelance Writing. I've got a copy on my WritingBiz site:
