- techiferous 17y agoYes, you want to keep things open and honest at all times. In the case mentioned above, either quote a fixed price or quote an hourly rate and bill for actual hours worked.
- _delirium 17y agoIt is, but impossible-to-police fraud, as long as you actually are delivering a reasonable amount of work for the claimed hours. It's essentially using a fixed-price-per-project model disguised as an hourly rate: promising to do it in 5 hours at $50/hr is equivalent to charging $250 for the project, and the purchaser can decide in either case if $250 is worth it.
