Q: Can I use The KEY™ without Excel?
Yes, The KEY™ can be used with Google Sheets, Excel for PC, and Numbers for Mac.
Q: Who do I contact with issues related to The KEY™?
You can contact Team Nancy at info@nancyganzekaufer.com with any questions about The KEY™.
Q: Is The KEY™ specific to the US market, or can I use it in any country?
The KEY™ and materials are specific to the US market, however, you can edit the Pricing Tool to work with different currencies.
Q: Can I use The KEY™ if I use a flat fee or a hybrid pricing model?
While you can use The KEY™ with a flat fee, a hybrid pricing model is Nancy’s recommended pricing method to maximize profitability and ensure you’re well-compensated for your time and expertise.
Q: Can I use The KEY™ if I want to charge by square footage?
Experience has shown that charging based on square footage alone rarely results in the profitability that you can get by charging based on estimated project hours. However, you have the ability to retroactively analyze your estimate based on square footage (because it’s always good to know your numbers).
Q: Can I use The KEY™ if I don’t know how long certain tasks take, or if I HATE tracking my hours?
Yes! The KEY™ is pre-loaded with some standard hourly benchmarks that you can use to estimate how long things will take you at various stages of the design process and throughout different parts of the project. As you start tracking your hours (as you really should), you will modify based on your own REAL hours.
Q: Can I use The KEY™ more than once?
Yes! Once you purchase The KEY™ you can use it for as many projects as you need by saving new copies to your computer.
