Frequently Asked Questions
How is the freelance hourly rate calculated?
Your total yearly costs (living + business) are divided by billable hours, then adjusted upward so your profit margin is protected: rate = costs / hours / (1 - margin).
How many billable hours should I use?
Most freelancers bill 800–1,200 hours per year. A 40-hour week minus holidays, admin, marketing and downtime usually leaves about 1,000 truly billable hours.
