Erin,

I came across the following website last year (or it was recommended--forget which), and it includes free downloads that help you figure out how to come up with an hourly rate and how to price a project. As someone who was a consultant for 8 years before going back into the institutional world, I wish I'd found this information way back at the beginning of my independent work! It's by Mary Ellen Bates, who runs a research and information consulting firm.

Hope this helps.

My expertise in conducting oral history projects for museums and institutions has been requested. The group asking for my services is amenable to paying me, but, since I’ve only done this type of work on behalf of an institution for which I am employed, haven’t the first idea of what to charge. Anyone have an idea of fee schedules for this type of thing? They are asking for consultation, conducting interviews, and transcription.

 

Thanks.
