About the webinar:

Whether you’re a freelancer or a captive writer, knowing how much to estimate is one of the most important skills for any technical communicator. If you can’t estimate, you can’t set rates, schedules, or production dates. Conversely, being able to set precise estimates lets you make accurate bids and tighten your schedules so you can squeeze in that much more work. This 90-minute presentation shows you how to create documentation plans (so you know what you’re producing), develop personal metrics (so you know how long it’ll take you to produce it), and understand rates and how much is ‘enough’ (so you won’t starve while doing it).

About the speaker: 

John Hedtke is the author of nearly 30 books, more than 200 magazine articles, and hundreds of manuals and online help systems. He is a highly respected Fellow of the Society for Technical Communication, and is an active consultant for public, private, and governmental organizations with Double Tall Consulting. John teaches classes on writing and how to have a great career working as a freelance writer.

When he’s not pounding out the pages, John plays the banjo, drinks too much coffee, and travels the world in search of new adventures.
