My question is how would you know how much to charge a potential client for something like this? Did you have any idea it would have taken you this long? If you were to charge $50/hr, and worked 80 hours (approx. 2 weeks) that would have cost about $4000??? Is that right?Ginger Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17453442334718861407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691016683378293851.post-53123260992053634002011-11-09T06:30:00.414-05:002011-11-09T06:30:00.414-05:00You are very efficient, Marian.

How true it is, countless hours of headbanging. Jut one more bang and it will all make sense. I enjoyed the webinar as well, ire as the first one related to genealogy that I was able to watch.Terri O'Connellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13571535485003397959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691016683378293851.post-72187763247791608372011-11-08T10:43:21.601-05:002011-11-08T10:43:21.601-05:00You followed the bread crumbs, you thought about w...You followed the bread crumbs, you thought about what you had and what to do next, it's all logical and rambling, but that's pretty typical, I think.<br /><br />It would have been much harder for me 2500 miles away. I would have followed essentially your research path, used FHL microfilms but couldn't have walked the graveyards or gone to local rpeositories that might have unique records. It would have taken me 40 to 80 weeks to do it, I think.<br /><br />Good post!Randy Seaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477703429102065294noreply@blogger.com
