TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
This situation is unique and unlike most other consulting opportunities,
in that you are the single most qualified individual on the planet for
this particular project. You are the expert, and I believe that the
rate you charge should reflect that. I would suggest quoting a much
higher rate than you might consider when walking in cold to a new
situation. You can justify this because there will be no learning
curve, you already know the people involved, and you already know the
company, which anyone else would have to learn to be as effective as you
will be when you walk in the door. The time you save them will more
than account for the high fee, plus they won't have to dedicate the kind
of resources to shepherd you that they would with a total stranger. I
say ask for the moon. What have you got to lose?
