Hi Loïc,
We are ready to issue the contract but we need to know how you would like to be paid. We can either pay monthly by dividing the total budget amount by the 12 or we could pay based on completion of each deliverable. With the first option you would submit a monthly report detailing what was done that month. In the second option you would need to determine how much time each deliverable will take and how much of the budget should be paid to you for each deliverable. I am sending you a budget template via email so you can break down your costs. Let’s find a time early next week to review.
Best,

Hi [redacted],
I will study the template and prepare a draft for you to review. I will prefer to be paid based on the completion of each deliverable. I just have one important question before I can proceed: how much flexibility is there regarding the starting date? Does it need to start on September? October? November?
Thanks for your help

Hi Loic,
Great, we’ll work on setting up payments based on the deliverables. We also have a lot of flexibility with start dates. One last thing, based on your calculations on the number of days you need for the project, 130, at 8 hours per day. 70720 USD at 68 USD per hour. If you would like to change this in your budget please do so.
Best,
