We have done **custom web-based software** for the United Nations, we have done **front-end prototyping** for American Express, we have done **data migrations** for all of our projects including **web-scraping**, **API integrations**, and even client **direct mail campaigns** (direct mail often has a higher ROI than paid ads).

We do not charge a retainer, we simply charge for *actual development time*. We keep track of our hours using the **Harvest Time Tracking Software** and we send invoices to all active clients at the end of each month. If you need us, reach out. If you don’t, all good. We’ll be here for you when you need us. For your project we would estimate the following: | | | | | --- | --- | --- | | | *$125* | *Hourly Rate* | | **Hours** | **Estimate** | **Description** | | 16 | $2,000 | Initial Discovery & Project Planning | | 24 | $3,000 | WordPress Configuration | | 40 | $5,000 | Content Migration into new WordPress | | 40 | $5,000 | WordPress Frontend Development | | 32 | $5,000 | QA, Feedback, Updates | | 8 | $1,000 | Training & Documentation | | **160** | **$20,000** | **Total** | ## Timeline We could begin work on the project on **Tuesday, April 12, 2022**. The project will likely take 6 weeks to complete so we could have your new website live by **June 1**. --- ## The Long Run It is our goal to continue working with all of our clients for **the long run**. We try to make things as easy as possible for our clients and we generally continue working with each client for many years. You will have a team of highly experienced developers on call if you need assistance. ## Conclusion We are happy to present this proposal for your review. If you have any questions or need additional information amended to the proposal, please let us know. Thank you! **Tim Hobert** Founder & Development Lead Div
