Love the comments, particularly the riffs on the Godfather.

Like my dad always says: Never give away what you're already selling.
I like this part:
| Quote: | | Savor the negotiation, make some cash. What's the worst thing that can happen? You don't get the job, and instead continue to enjoy your time. |
People who whine about the price are looking to get it for free (or close to free). They will nickle-dime you to death and you'll be sorry you took the job. |

I turned down three jobs this week so far. One from a station who "hired" me years ago to do regular work for a client who spent far too much time directing me every month for a pittance. The station guy wanted me for a spot for the same rate. I told him my rate and he said "Well we won't be doing business then."
The other two were direct leads from V123. Nice people, but just didn't have any budgets.

That's the biggest reason why I quit recording garage bands. They'd hear about me through a friend (of a friend of a friend.....) and for some reason immediately assume I'd record their 15 song extravaganza for a case of cheap beer.
Um.......NO. |
