Use your costs, capacity and scope; generated rates are not evidence of what your clients will pay. What if the client adds more work? Refer to the agreed scope and propose a written change before doing the extra work. May I reuse a client proposal as an example? Remove confidential details and get permission where needed before sharing it. How do I chase an unpaid invoice politely? Check the ledger, state the invoice and due date, and ask for a payment update without inventing penalties. ## Scope an editing engagement 1. ### Define the editing engagement scope Draft a proposal for editing \[project scope\], including \[agreed revision rounds\] and client-supplied source copy.
