Hourly vs. Fixed Pricing

One of the most fundamental elements of a freelance collaborative pianist's career is their pricing model. Should you charge for every hour worked or per project? This is an important decision to make, and one that needs to be taken very early upon launching into a market. When playing for events such as student recitals, the wrong choice may mean either being taken advantage of or being perceived as overcharging. Mathias Meyer on Freelance Switch has just written an article on Hourly vs. Fixed Pricing for freelance professionals that should be required reading for all that tread this route.

As usual, comments are welcome.
