Also, having a starting price in the 10k+ range will help weed out bad apple customers. Trust us when we say that you want fewer high quality customers than a lot of pain-in-the-neck customers. Finally, charge 1/4th upfront like another poster said so you don't get screwed.
- goatherders 13y agoHaving a starting price in the $10k range also weeds him out. In my market (Austin), if I have $10k for a prototype (even half that) I can throw a cat and hit a Ruby guy, a Python guy, a PHP guy, etc. The price as he has it is low enough that people with "an idea" might take the plunge to get a prototype going. If I were to have one suggestion it would be for his site to spell out some parameters about what a prototype is so there are no later arguments.
