Anyone Know Jimmy-3-Way?

This guy wrote me wanting 2 galleries designed and when I said I wanted half the money upfront he made a big deal about it...Said he was "dubious" about paying upfront and that his rep speaks for itself and he shouldn't have to...though he wouldn't tell me what he does.

He went on about how much he makes...so you wouldn't think he'd have a problem paying $35 upfront...lol.

Time is money and I'm not designing free galleries....especially when it's standard to make part of the payment before the job.

This was his explanation for the whole thing...

"it has to do with getting shit done on deadline. If you got my moeny you aren't hungry enough to work, if you can deliver your shit you'd have a Paypal by tomorrow."

Hungry?? 2 Galleries

Anyway...Just wondering is anyone knew of him/"his rep"

Thanks,
PM

Good guy.. never a problem. Why would you talk about a future customer like that man? Jimmy is a good guy and I would trust him for the $35.00.

Probably because he was talking himself up and was trying to rely on his "rep". PotentMind doesn't know him or his rep...he's just going by the conversation.

From what he said, I'd be suspect as well if I didn't know who he was or what site/program he was with.

If I were a designer I would make sure I get the cash upfront. Simple as that. When you go to the grocery store *for example* they don't front you so why would this be any diffrent?

If you want work done then you pay for work done. If not go to someone who will front you their work.

For my cam shows it's 1005 upfront. Doesn't matter how much the guys spends on a reg. basis. Work is work. Until I see that he has paid he gets nothing. If it's an e-cheque I wait until it clears.

I dont know him ..
But I always take payment upfront .
in full under orders of $500,
I have turned away customers that don't want to pay upfront ,

I have to keep to this policy , cause eventually you will get screwed .
not saying that Jimmy 3 way will screw you .
but if you allow customers to decide YOUR policies you'll get fucked someday by someone .

I would tell him its %50 upfront or go elsewhere .

Yeah... I agree with you guys, but no need to copy and paste private conversations in order to find out if someone is legit.

You have got to be shitting me.

Grow the fuck up, kid. I offered you some work, you acted like a dick about it over $35.

Simple fact: I don't pay upfront to guys I don't know. Especially designers and programmers.

If you already have your money what incentive is there for you to deliver?

Do you go to a job interview and ask for your first week's pay upfront? Fuck no.

well then he should understand designers aren't going to do work right upfront, until they see something for it.

Seems like you both feel the same way about it. Why not meet in the middle and put down a deposit. Just like you're afraid to get screw, so is he. It's not about the money. He has policy for his operation and doesn't need or want someone dictating to him how he should run his business.

You were asking him to allow you to pay after based on your "rep". He had never heard of "Jimmy3Way" so he came here to ask. If you come across as being a dick...that's not his fault.

I know Jimmy; In fact, I was chatting with him on ICQ when I came across this thread.

There are very few people that I trust in this business, but Jimmy3way is on the top of that list. I've never heard a bad word spoken about him - Ever.

Lightspeed Media has tried to hire him a number of times, but it's never worked out for one reason or another. I'd love to have him working for me.

A deposit or 50% upfront is mandatory for me and most designers. If people don't like that, I send them references of past clients, which usually clears their mind of any doubt.

Business is business...

If your reputation speaks for itself, then you don't have to say anything, you just ask for it to be done, and they know it's in their best interest to get started.

In this case, the reputation didn't speak for iteself. For either of you.

Jimmy, if you wanted him to trust you on the payment, bragging about your salary and shit just makes you sound like a cheat. We've had our shit, but I know you know enough people, so send him a reference he would know. Marc Womack, and RocHard seem like people he'd be able to take the reference from.

Potent Mind, same to you buddy. 50% up front for all design jobs is pretty standard as is 100% upfront for work under $500. good for you, set your own policies. But, that being said, when a customer doubts you, you have GOT to know that designers and programers flake out all the time with people's money. So you should have a list of references from past jobs just waiting for someone to doubt you. Nothing shuts them up like the truth, so just be like, "I deliver 100% of the time. Ask any of these 20 guys, and it would be a finished convorsation. If you aren't comfortable with that, I'm sorry we couldn't work something out." Unless you really need this $70 job that bad, in which case you are in the spot, not him. And this way, you wouldn't risk anyone getting a negative view of you like some seem to have on this thread.

Bottom line: The customer is always right, but he may not be the right customer for you, so he can go be right someplace else, or you can take the work. This could have been handled better, I hope it was a learning experience all around.

Fuckit I'll generalize...

Designers and Programmers are lazy as fuck. Even with 50% up front they slow down to 0 miles and hour and pay no attention to deadlines.

Jimmy 3 Way is very established. Not knowing who he is says something for who you are. And I'm pretty sure he's operating on the above premise.

Make the damn gallery and start networking and making a name for yourself, before you know it you'll be laughing about this thread.

Good luck

I just saw this thread and I had to give my 2 cents for Jimmy. I've known him for a fairly long time and have to say Jimmy is one of the most honest, hard working people I deal with in this biz. His word is golden in my opinion, I will vouch for him anyday, anyplace...Jimmy3way is a stand up guy

jimmy 3 way, hmmm i liked listening to the guy talk and he has a lot of energy. lol, also i have to agree with the "how can you expect payment up front for no work". isnt that what homeless people do? plus he lives by me so if there is a situation i can meet him in person.

Actually it was $35, cause he wanted 2 Galleries done. $75 total.

But my point as well.

Not sure what to think of him...a "stand up guy"/"classy guy" wouldn't come on here and say things like I was being a dick to him and then not back his words up.

In no way whatsoever was I, I simply stated that I couldn't do the work without receiving half the money and he refused.

Anyone would wonder...especially when the guy's going on about how much he makes....$35 should be nothing to him.

Jimmy 3 Way is very established. Not knowing who he is says something for who you are. And I'm pretty sure he's operating on the above premise.

Make the damn gallery and start networking and making a name for yourself, before you know it you'll be laughing about this thread.

Good luck
You should know that most designers have other projects in the works, and your expectation to have your work delivered 'instantaneously' for bottom dollar is naive at best. Standard turnaround is 2 weeks and if any designer squeezes you in earlier they are either doing for extra $, they are new or they love you to death.

I have never heard of Jimmy 3 Way myself and I've been in adult almost 5 years. So just because you think you are a superstar doesn't mean every one else does. Put it in perspective.

Exactly man! good point.

I've been around twice as long as you, know a lot of people and have never heard of him.
