One thing I’m learning as a freelancer: don’t price the job before understanding the scope.
A project can look simple from the outside, but once you review the sitemap, Figma screens, responsive requirements, integrations, and number of pages, the actual workload can be very different.
That’s why I’ve started paying closer attention to:
• The complete project scope
• Number of unique pages and sections
• Custom functionality required
• Responsive implementation
• Content and assets needed
• Timeline and revisions
The goal isn't to charge more.
The goal is to make sure the price reflects the actual work involved and that both the client and developer know exactly what they're getting.
Customer Conversations is an AI that calls a store's customers and interviews them. Explaining that took half of every sales call.
Three weeks after Bryan Starck brought it to us, it had a brand and a homepage built to do the explaining. Answer three questions and the AI calls you for a real interview in 60 seconds.
Startfrom 2.0 is live. It's our template library: finished websites designed at Apollo Studio, available as a Framer project, an Astro theme or a Next.js app.
Each template page shows what you get and runs the live demo in the page. Some templates are free.
Keeping content separate from layout would make the Astro and Next.js versions easier to customise. Do they share a content schema, or does each template have its own setup?
