fair-value
If you are unsure of
what value to place
on the Ask
theentrepreneur
services to be
provided, the
following method of
determining your
fee may be
appropriate. Take
your gross
annual income, and
divide by 2080 (52
wks x 40 hrs). This
amount would be a
suggested hourly
fee rate,
times, the amount of
time you think went
into the services
that were provided
(minimum of $20.00
charge). Add (or
subtract) to this
any added-value you
feel is appropriate
to the services
provided. Or you
can just pay the
amount you feel the
service and answer
provided is of value
to you.
Your initial
amount (with
submission of your
question) should be
50% of the fee
you have set - the
balance and any
additional amount
may be made after
your question is
answered or your
services are
complete. For your
convenience, a
PayPal link will
be provided for your
use upon submitting
your question,
and
again upon receiving
your answer.
Other helpful
factors for
determining what
amount to donate
The amount you
determine for your
question should take
into account the
following factors:
How quickly do
you want an
answer...
The higher the
amount you set for
your question, the
more likely an Ask
theentrepreneur
mentor will
begin work on your
question quickly.
Mentors earn 75% of
the price of the
question when they
post an answer to
it.
How complex is the
question...
The more complex the
question, the more
time it requires for
a Mentor to answer.
A Mentor will be
more motivated to
immediately work on
a complex question
if he or she feels
adequately
compensated for the
time expended. If
you have a sense of
how long it will
take a Mentor to
find an answer, you
should take that
into account. For
example, if you know
your question could
take 3 hours to
answer, you should
price your question
higher than you
would if your
question would take
only 15 minutes to
answer.
How valuable is
the information to
you...
Only you can
determine the value
of the information
you're seeking. If
it's important and
urgent, you should
value your question
accordingly.
