Service Pricing Calculator

For freelancers, agencies, and service businesses. Get a project quote that pays you fairly and ships with three packaged tiers.

Quick answer

To quote a service project, multiply your hours by your hourly rate, add subcontractor and overhead costs, then divide by (1 − margin). For 25 hours at $95 plus $100 overhead and a 30% margin: $2,475 cost ÷ 0.70 = $3,536 quote.

How this calculator works

Total cost = labor (hours × rate) + materials + overhead. Quote = total cost ÷ (1 − margin). Tiers are 0.8× / 1× / 1.4× of the quote — a spread that lets clients self-select up or down without re-anchoring.

Frequently asked

Start with (hours × rate + overhead) ÷ (1 − margin as a decimal). Add any materials or subcontractor costs inside the parentheses too. To work out your hourly rate, use the consultant-rate calculator.

Per-project quotes are almost always better — they reward your speed and protect you from scope creep. Use the hourly equivalent only as a sanity check.

20–40% is standard. You're managing the relationship, taking risk, and standing behind the work.

Anchor your standard package at the calculated quote. Basic strips out a deliverable; premium adds a high-value addition (rush, extra revisions, ongoing support).
