Great advice! Thank you very much.

This is a Sports Magazine for the area community, and surrounding areas. It's 32 pages as of now. I'm having a hard time figuring time on what to quote this. I have created a cover concept, and I'm had planned on creating the templates, so when the pieces are sent to me, I can just plug and play. Best case scenario.

This mag will also be getting a ton of it's funding from advertising space, which I will be designing some of those as well.

Let's say I'm an advanced designer, been doing it for about 10 years, would 60 hours cover front to end layout and type setting if everything is supplied to me in a requested form I'll supply to them. As stated, I'll create a few templates that I'll use as my main layouts. Another company quoting this project mentioned it would take them 1 1/2 weeks to complete layout.

This project would be worked on by only person. So 60hrs x 1body.

Thanks again!!!!
