Good day good colleagues.
What would be the rate for review (apprx 250 words), with pictures. It is a children book, so content is very basic and doesnt need professional translation skills. What would be the suggested rate for such a job?
thank you

Charge your hourly rate Sep 7, 2024

All review work can only be charge per hour, that is, whatever you charge for one hour of work. If it's only a small project that takes half an hour, then charge 50% of your hourly rate.

If the work takes only 10 minutes, then charge the 50%, but inform the client that the amount will be counted up to other smaller projects.

My rate for editing (bilingual review) is 50% my translation rate and for proofing (monolingual review) is 25% my translation rate. In this case, I would charge my minimum rate (my rate per hour).
