Darth,
I bill about $125.00 per hour for consulting + price
of materials (up front).
My contracts state:
Materials due 100% at the inception of a contract.
Expected Labor is 1/2 down on start of project and
then 1/2 at the end of project for smaller projects.
These types of contracts usually encompass about a
$2000.00 project to about a $20,000 project. Actual
work per project is about 2 days to about 8-10 days
tops. Sometimes I spread them out a bit.
Time and Materials for long-term projects.
Now, I'm not a CCIE either.
I expect your solo rates will vary as many can tell
you from this group.
And note, I am from the famously underpaid south...
