Yes these are euro's but here everything is more expensive, i highly doubt you have to pay E900 a month on bills so you have to put it in perspective.

And don't be affraid(and don't show them you are ) to ask a higher price out of the top of my hat i would ask somewhere around E10-15 Ex Vat an hour when you calculate the total.
I mean they know how you work they actually let you make something which means they are already partial to you, just make sure it's a face to face conversation, smile a lot if they want to go towards pricing issues throw it away with a smile and show them some quality work you have already done always emphasize the quality of your work and they shoul be honored to have you on board (exagerating a bit here of course but you know what i mean)

I mean if they are a big company making your price to low will cause them taking you not seriously i actually know a guy who made an offer on goverment contracted work based on an hourly fee of E150 an insider who wanted him to get the job told him to make a price based on an hourly fee of E300 " otherwise they don't take you seriously"
needles to say it felt like a divorce when the contract finished-men always seem to lose half, LOL-
true story.


just prepare your work and talk the talk and walk the walk.
oh and if budget allows buy some new clothes when you visit them, something that says" follow me i know the way"(Indy joke)

I wish you all the best in your endevour.
