A price can look good until you subtract revisions, platform fees, payment fees, tool costs, and the time spent messaging. This sheet helps you find a floor price, then decide whether the job is worth accepting.

Use this when

You are setting prices for Fiverr, Upwork, local services, tutoring, design, writing, admin, or consulting.
You feel busy but your side hustle is not producing enough net income.
You need a quote that includes scope and revision limits.

How to use it

Estimate delivery time, admin time, and likely revision time.
Subtract platform and payment fees where relevant.
Include any direct costs such as transport, tools, data, printing, or stock.
Set a floor price below which the job is not worth taking.
Use package pricing only when each package has clear limits.
