Fletch is definatly right about the part regarding free consulting.
I do not mind chatting up and spinning idea's but from time to time it does turn into an information pump from some folks. I seriously do not mind ding such things though if the client has been a paying a paying client.
There is a spot in discussing with new clients a site build and any designer wants to be helpful and informative to get a client but some people do not know where the line crosses. I just kinda got hustled last week, even built a design offered up tons of information. A day later the guy decides he is going to have an entire re haul on there projects...
I am out 350.oo for a design and about 2 hours of time waisted, and 8 hours waisted doing a design. If anyone wants a template hit me up...
There have been months when I was fucked for over 1500.oo and sometimes as low as 50.oo. I do nt whine on the boards about it so much but I should just to warn other designers the nature of some scum bag's these days doing business.
Go figure.
