| May 27, 2011 at 5:39 | comment | added | MartinJJ | Without a .psd its pretty much a case of blowing into the wind, from my own personal experience this can rapidly spiral into a loop of the client constantly humming and ahhh'ing and wanting to try this and try that. Most of my work is done with Silverstripe CMS which doesnt have as many belles and whistles as wordpress, but how can you put a price / timescale on work without a .psd?.. what gives?.. an hourly quote, a set project fee, how would you actualy quote a price for project without a .psd? | |

| May 27, 2011 at 1:49 | comment | added | mfields | Totally agree! But many times when I'm asked this question, it's a cold call with no psd or screenshot provided. Very true on the data migration though! I usually forget about that :) | |
