Projecting Costs

Developing a business or organization history requires many hours of research, writing, editing, organization and design. Each history is unique, and the cost of completing it will depend on factors such as:

• number of people interviewed
• number of hours per interview
• number of drafts required for your review
• number of photos/documents and need for restoration
• color vs. black & white printing
• number of copies of final document
• binding style (paperback vs. hardbound)

When you start considering a business or organization history, call us for a free initial meeting. At that meeting, we’ll ask about your ideas for the project, make some suggestions, and talk about costs. Then we’ll do our best to design a proposal that achieves your goals within your budget.

We charge an all-inclusive fee for a project, so there are no surprises for you. All costs are agreed upon in advance, and the terms are detailed in a Letter of Agreement. Once that letter is signed, the price will not change unless you change some aspect of the project and agree to any additional costs.
