In situations where the client is not tech saavy or the scope is
ambiguous, we bid high and ask for a 50% deposit. I think the best
scenario is to get the client to pay for a detailed spec so they are
clear on the deliverables beforehand and there are no disputes about
what is in scope later on. In general though, we avoid fixed-rate jobs
if possible (If you're paid hourly, then revisions and scope creep are
good things.)
