What's inside

  • Reverse-engineer your day rate from the income you actually want
  • Factor in holidays, sick days, admin time, and non-billable hours
  • Project, hourly, and retainer pricing models side by side
  • A value-based pricing worksheet for premium clients
  • See exactly how a raise changes your year

Most freelancers undercharge by 40%+

They divide a salary by 2,000 hours and call it a rate — ignoring tax, unpaid admin, time off, and the months work is slow. This calculator works backwards from the life you want and shows the rate that actually gets you there.

What you'll receive

  • 1 Google Sheets calculator
  • 1 Excel version
  • Pricing guide (PDF)

Questions

It gives you a defensible floor for your day rate plus project and retainer equivalents — so you walk into every quote with a number you can stand behind.
