Hadn't seen this, Danny Hysterical and scary at the same time.

I might add a few lines of dialogue for the diner in the restaurant:

“You know, I don't have a lot of money right now. But if you stick with me, help me out now (say, give me, oh, 10-12 free dinners), when I'm doing better, I'll come back and pay you for meals. What do you say?”

Been there? I certainly have.

I agree – work in partnerships and move away from the whole vendor/buyer mentality, it's amazing what can be done.

We often sell ourselves short because we don't want to put the client off by price. Yet ours is a small percentage of where our joint success can often take a company - we need to be more aware of that. I think that's often something that's forgotten, Darin.

And seeing this today and your comments made me re-think a few things.

Love your last line… “After all, if you’re being paid for your success, surely your client’s enjoying that success with you, no?”

Thanks Danny!

I'm happy to gather information on my dime, but once the quote/estimate/summary of charges is sent on it's merry way, it's time to move to the billable stage.

Your last sentence rings so true, it's all about a mutually beneficial, successful relationship - those are the best client/provider relationships. Groooooovy!
