Sometimes we're a sounding board or a brainstorming partner during one-on-one consultations
We bill for our services on a flat, per-page rate to provide reliability and predictability to our pricing. For projects that do not lend themselves to a physical page count such as email newsletters and press releases, we use the guideline of 400-500 words per page to assess page count.
