The association we used to work for has usually asked me to sight the third chairman for my aged position. The owners of the association cannot even sight these people himself since he doesn’t know the computer/accounting system. we am the usually chairman in the universe which can sight his brand brand brand brand new worker as well as honestly we am removing sleepy of being in this position, so we am starting to introduce to my aged trainer which we will rise the really minute precision primer which will go over positively each aspect of the pursuit step by step, so which from right away upon he can usually go by the precision primer with the brand brand brand brand new worker instead of vagrant me to sight them, again.
How many would we contend is the satisfactory volume to assign for formulating this precision manual? It will take me approx. 2 weeks we figure, as well as that’s operative upon it for the great 8 hours the day. we am meditative may be $750 – $800 CAD.
To the chairman who answered initial – we no longer work for this company. we do not WANT to sight any some-more people for the pursuit we left months ago. we usually do not have the heart to contend no when my ex-boss begs me to sight someone brand brand brand brand new since which would usually screw him over completely. But we many really do not caring either he would cite me to sight them over the manual! we have the hold up of my own, as well as the brand brand brand brand new job.

First of all, this manual that you create will actually make your job easier. You aren’t doing it for your boss, you will be doing it for yourself.
Secondly, your boss may not be willing to pay you to create a manual. He may not even WANT a manual if he would rather that you train the people in person. Also consider that because you work for the company, anything that you do on company time and/or for the company is property of the company. The only way you can get paid to do the manual is to resign from the company and then work as a consultant.
Wow, you ask too little. As a consultant I put together training manuals for things that I only knew a little about and charged $150/hour.
Since you are the only one who knows this stuff, I would think you could get more… like $200/hour.
Think about all the time you will save this company and the fact that it is written down.
I’d think you could get as high as 15k. But I would guess that you would be putting this together on work time, so you really can’t charge for it.
Don’t sell your self short. 800 for two weeks worth of work (80 hours) is about 10.00 an hour. Now that sounds fair but how much time are you really going to have to spend to create this manual? Especially when your have to rewrite for little changes that will come up. And they will come up no matter how careful you are. Been there done that got the t-shirt.
How much does he pay you now to train his new employees? Maybe you need to charge him closer to a 1000. Not trying to be greedy. But when you get on a roll writing some days you may not be able to stop at the end of your 8 hr day.
Good luck
Folks, she DOES NOT work for her old boss anymore. He is calling her to have her come back into her old office to train his new employees. Sorry didn’t mean to yell.
I don’t see any reason to get greedy, no sense in aggravating a potential future reference.
Presumably, you don’t have any research to do on the computer/ accounting system. You merely write the manual from personal knowledge.
I would recommend that you negotiate with the former boss for a “project rate” of between $ 75 – $ 100 /hr. With, an estimated 50% “up-front” and the balance due upon completion of the project, via invoice at the time of delivery, based on the number of hours actually expended.
If you desire, you can negotiate a proviso that the manual is your property and that s/he is only “licensing”it for internal “proprietary” use and that any changes will be done by you.
Get everything in writing. (Write the agreement yourself.)
Do not charge, as a past employee it is your obligatory duty to do so.you have worked togather havent you, and have benifitted by experience at least, havent you.
