I hope you get some answers here -- it sounds as though what you do is kind of like personal cheffing, and we have some really nice personal chefs here.
But I have to ask that one of your questions NOT be answered here: the question about what to charge. I just found out that discussions of rates is considered to be price-fixing, and should not be done in online discussion boards. Frankly, that sounds stupid to me -- after all, we are just trying to help each other in our businesses, and since we're scattered all over the world it's unlikely that we could have any impact in the greater scheme of the services we offer. But it's better to be safe than risk a lawsuit from the FTC.
