I have an Excel file with 3 tabs. The file contains names and addresses that I will be using as a mailing list. The names and addresses are of my own former customers which I have 1005 legal rights to and own the information for. I manually entered them from paper files and need them in an Excel template;
Tab 1 & 2 contain data where in each 1 cell need to cut and paste into separate columns into Tab 3. The data is basically a first name, last name, address, city, state, and zip.
The content in Tab 1 and tab 2 is mostly identical with a few exceptions.
There are approximately 645 cells with addresses in Tab 2. I moved 3 cells worth myself. I timed myself at 3 addresses in 2.5 minutes. At $5.00 per hour that should take approximately 11 hours. That equals $55.00.
The last step is to verify that all the addresses in Tab 1 are already in Tab 3 and if any new ones found in Tab 1 to enter them into Tab 3 in the same way as from tab 2. There may be a some and there may be very few. For that reason if you add another $45.00 for the time it takes to check you get total cost for the project.
Once complete, I will verify all the addresses have been completely and correctly moved in to the template in Tab 3.
