how do i set up a flat rate fee for typing

Thank you for your question and welcome to Just Answer!

Congrats on starting your own business!

It looks like most places charge about $2.50 per page, and charge down to the half page. Here is an example:

Because it may be hard for a customer to know how long their document might be, you should also consider charging by the audio length. Prices could be as low as $1.50 a minute or up to $3.00 a minute if there are multiple people on the tape. Check out this company:

Of course, it also depends on the turnaround needed. Companies charge more if the customer needs it within 24 hours. On average they charge about 50% more for the expidited service.

I hope this helps! If so, please don't forget to "Accept" my answer!

I accept that answer, but do you have a place where I can go to to see in general what people are charging for services. (straight typing, busines cards, etc.)?

The links I sent you have what other companies were charging for typing... is this not what you needed?

Regards,
Ryan

No the website really wasn't what I was looking for. I will just pay for the first question that you answered, and I will continue to try to find and answer in what I need. Thank you for your help.
