Post-project edits Jul 31

Define post-project edits.

If it's about extra text my customers will spontaneously send me a purchase order. If it's only a few words or sentences I will be glad to translate it for free.

It depends on the edits and on the customer. For a repeat customer, I’m always willing to do some small edits for free. For a new client, I’ll either charge my minimum fee or waive it completely. My longest-standing client (a Belgian agency) asks for this very often. These are marketing texts, and the end client almost always has a few minor points they wish to add or change. We have therefore agreed on a "special" rate for these cases (half my "minimum" fee).
