I have been working for a few years doing programming and controls for a couple different companies, on staff as one would say. Recently, an industry contact friend of mine sent me an e-mail saying he had a client that would be needing some HMI programming and creation, utilizing a platform that I have good experience with.
Basically he asked me to do the screens and setup for the stand-alone equipment HMI they are installing. I am definitely going to pursue this and was wondering....given the situation details.....What kind of compensation should I seek?
There have been some other possible similar opportunities that have popped up here and there and I am thinking I might go get a business license and create a legitimate "umbrella" for these occasional opportunities. I used to run a small business so that seems no big deal, but I am unsure how to navigate compensation and dealing....
Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
