Billable Hours Calculator for Freelancers: How Many Hours Are Actually Billable?
Most freelancers overestimate billable hours. Calculate your real number and price accordingly.
If you work 40 hours a week, you're not billing 40. Subtract admin time, sales and marketing, professional development, and breaks. Most freelancers bill 60–70% of working hours, or 1,000–1,400 hours/year. Use this realistic number in your rate calculator. Overestimating billable hours is one of the top reasons freelancers set rates too low.
