I, Sherri Schultz, have agreed to copyedit/proofread ________________________________ (Work) for ________________________________ (Client). My estimate of the total cost is $ ______ ( ___ hours at
$ ___ per hour).
This estimate does not include any time I may spend
in telephone, e-mail, or in-person consultations related to this project, which will also be
billed to Client.
The estimate is based on a word count of ______________ and the
expectation that the sample pages are representative of the Work. If, upon
receipt of the whole Work, the editing seems to require significantly more
time to complete, I will contact Client within five working days to reevaluate
our agreement. Client has agreed to deliver the Work, along with a check for half of the above estimate and any style sheets/word lists or other necessary materials, to me on ______________. I have agreed to return the completed work by
______________ via ______________ (e-mail/postal mail/courier/FedEx/etc.). The addresses, phone
numbers, and/or account numbers that I will need to do this are
___________________________________________________. I will reserve time for Client's job on my work calendar
from ___________ to ___________. In return for this courtesy, if the Work will not be ready on the
above date, Client will inform me as soon as possible, and at least 24 hours prior
to the above date. If such notice is not given, Client will be charged $100 per
weekday until the Work is delivered. When editing is completed, I will bill Client for the balance
owed, and that sum will be due within five weekdays of receipt of the bill.
After that date, interest will be applied at a rate of 1.5 percent
per month. Should Client decide to terminate the project before
its completion, Client will pay me for the work I have done
to that point. I will return to Client all materials, including the edited work,
within five weekdays of receipt of payment, via the method specified above.
Understood and agreed:
