Ask yourself

if per hour ( set your rate 2.22 for average starter )
for project ( set your rate and your deadline )
Ask the client
How many hours
What are the timezones
When are you going to get paid
Any information's about the job
Point of contact
Resources
*manage your invoice receipt ( to be sent to the client )
- this may not be applicable to some clients since they have their softwares (time table and etc.)
*MS office, Open office - whatever depending on your nature of work.
*take advantage of Skype's unli world subscription for free - using skype you can call landlines and mobile phones from different countries all over the world
note:
Some clients -requires the applicants to have their own way to call the leads. ( I know its crazy but if you don't like it nor do I, skip it )
Here's my take in bidding lower ( in which a lot of us thinks its a good way to win projects or clients - THINK AGAIN ).
A good and professional client prefers quality work and if they want that quality in which you humbly think you have. Then flaunt it don't underestimate it.
You might want to ask yourself
Would you like to work 12 hours with ex. $1.2 or work 6 hours with ex. $5 ? You know the difference - time, energy and money.
