So,,Who pays 100% in full for design + work
 

According to someone I am dealing with EVERYONE.

Sorry I have been fucking for 600.00 by d_neil..

I don't pay in full anymore..

What about the rest of you people on GFY?

50-50 only one i trust fully is Fletch

I don't even pay 50%/40%. I pay after completion to my satisfaction. Sometimes if I trust the guy and he asks for a partial advance I will agree, however (way) too many flakes in design and even more in programmers.

Split the risk - 50% down and balance on delivery.

full payment upfront requires a lot of trust, and even if i was the one being paid..i wouldn't want everything up front, just so you can be sure im not gunna run off or something..

Always 50-50 sometimes 0-100 depending on who your dealing with.

Your work appears vrey creative :)

:thumbsup

50 50 Is Fair

we do with ppl we trust :) like adultdesignstudios np with that

I actually prefer my clients to pay on completion... Not sure why, I just do :)

Most people are pretty trust worthy, and I haven't been screwed in a year or so.

if i know where they live or they are longtime business associates they can get paid in full like rakim

otherwise yea 5050 seems to be the accepted norm

And as for clients who don't pay... last 2 of minue I've had to take their sites down to get the cash they agreed on.. and we're only talking a few hundred dollars here..

Generally.. I feel you negotiate a price, present a concept, take a %50 deposit and then develop within time-frame, deliver and get the other 50%.

I also provide the mobile of previous clients (and with mine their numbers are on their sites.. escorts web sites) and I tell them call and ask.. nothing better than having confirmation from a previous client.. I understand that can't happen with a lot of stuff.. but that's my experience anyway.
