State Scope and Price for Work Requested by Friends
State work and price even when a friend makes the request. Shared expectations about deliverables and extra work still matter.
Decide discounts against time and cost. Distinguish a one-off exception from ongoing pricing.
Show Regular Rates and Included Work
Explain deliverables, duration, and revisions alongside regular rates. OpenStax considers costs and customers in pricing. (OpenStax: Pricing factors)
Assess actual changes in required work before choosing a friend’s price.
Define the Scope of a Discount
Document the amount and scope of a one-off discount. Set the content and number of any free additions.
Describe deliverable work rather than relying on closeness alone.
Recalculate Work and Price when Scope Changes
Recalculate effort and cost when quantity or deadlines change. Share revised scope and price before starting.
A regular-rate page provides a shared reference for discussing the request.
