Hi,

Copywriting usually involves creating copy from scratch. Everything really depends on the brief and what you have to do. I would recommend trying to work out how long the project will take - take into account, any research, drafts, any meetings/chats with the customer or people who can advise and completing the project. Then times this by your hourly rate. Translating words per hour can vary, depending on how experienced you are - some people will be able to push out a few hundred in an hour. You could try and tally everything up and charge by the project as well.
