Absolutely.  Living costs can be radically different in various parts of
the country.  For instance, the $400/month that got me a luxury apartment
in Fort Worth, Texas, would get me a hearty laugh in San Francisco.

My partner and I prefer to do this sort of "firm-fixed-price contract".
Coming up with a realistic bid price and structuring the contract so
nobody gets hurt is an art we're still learning.  We've done about five
times as many contracts this way as we have by the hour.

Speaking of this kind of thing, my partner and I are having a problem which
perhaps somebody here has an answer for.  We're working on a project
which is basically to write an interface layer so that the client's
proprietary library code can be called from an Windows Excel spreadsheet.
These libraries had previously been ported to Lotus 123 for DOS and Unix,
and Wingz for the Sun, and also sold as independent libraries, so we
assumed they'd been thoroughly tested... heh heh...

Well, over 80% of the bugs that have been reported against our project
have turned out to be in the client's libraries.  Fixing these libraries
is both outside the scope of the contract and far outside our expertise.
I'd guess we've spent an aggregate of 2-3 man-weeks on these bugs, and
the whole project was only supposed to take 2-3 man-weeks.  I can also
honestly say that there was no way at the beginning of the project that
we could have expected this kind of overrun.

Right now, we're just eating the extra time.  In the future, though, what
should we do?  Should we build an automatic price increase into our
contracts for extra work caused by client screw-ups?  Are there other,
better ways of dealing with this sort of thing?

Russ,

I incorporated myself in California using a Nolo Press book by Anthony Mancuso
called, wouldn't you know, "How to Form Your Own California Corporation".
My advise here depends on a person's ability to deal with a fair amount of
detail.  Are you are the kind of person that hates to get his hands dirty, or
simply can't stand to fill out forms, or refuses to do even essential
paperwork?  Then do not incorporate yourself, yourself.  Use a professional,
someone who will do the job correctly.

If you're somewhat interested in the incorporation process, buy a good book on
how to incorporate in *your* state.  Read it.  Then, *maybe* go with an outfit
like The Company Corporation.  They'll probably do the job right, but only for
a certain generic types of companies.  Some details that you will probably
want in your corporate bylaws won't be there, although they can be amended
later.

Third, do it all yourself.  I knew nothing of incorporating, running a
corporate entity, and all that stuff when I started.  Now, I feel pretty
comfortable about the whole thing.  And I saved myself about $1000 in legal
fees.

I guess this is pretty obvious, but whatever route you take, get informed.
If you do go to a lawyer, it may cut down on the time and thus the fees.

Good luck!
