=QUOTE(your_process)
What makes a project cost more, or less.
Every business’s manual process is a little different, so a flat price sheet would overcharge the simple jobs and underquote the complicated ones. Here’s what moves the number instead.
Custom automations
3 to 6 weeks
- Typically includes
- If your team repeats the same manual process (calculating something, reconciling something, rebuilding the same report every week), I build a small web app that does it in seconds. You upload a file or fill in a form, the tool does the work, you get the result.
- Costs more when
- More data sources to combine
- Lots of special cases in the process
- Several people with different access levels
- Costs less when
- One clean export as the input
- A process you can already explain step by step
Client-facing apps
3 to 6 weeks
- Typically includes
- Sometimes the manual process is your customers' problem: requesting a quote, checking on a job, sending you their information. I build simple tools that you and your customers actually use.
- Costs more when
- Connecting to software you already use
- A fully custom look for your customers
- Costs less when
- One clear job for the tool to do
- Starting from one of my existing shells
Website shells
1 to 2 weeks
- Typically includes
- Not every business needs a from-scratch build. I keep a set of solid website shells (service businesses, portfolios, small storefronts, landing pages) and customize one with your branding and content.
- Costs more when
- Design changes beyond the shell
- Extra pages
- Content that isn't written yet
- Costs less when
- Your logo, photos, and words ready to go
Most of that time is back and forth with you, making sure the finished tool matches what you pictured. The build itself is the quick part. After launch, I usually host and maintain what I build for a flat monthly rate.
