Freelance Negotiation

I have built several food delivery and restaurant apps over the past three years. My rate is $85 per hour, or I can give you a fixed project quote after I understand the full scope.

I would need your brand guidelines, a list of features you want, and access to your menu data. For a standard restaurant app, I would estimate eight to ten weeks from start to launch.

Absolutely. I offer a monthly maintenance plan that includes bug fixes, security updates, and minor feature additions. I will include that in the proposal I send you this week.

A loyalty system is a significant feature that would require additional development time. I would estimate it adds about two weeks and $3,000 to the project. I can provide an updated quote if you like.

Of course. I typically do a three-part payment structure: 30% upfront to begin work, 40% at the midpoint after the design is approved, and 30% upon final delivery and approval.

The proposal includes two rounds of revisions after delivery. Additional changes beyond that would be billed at my hourly rate. I find this keeps things fair for both sides.
