Cut n paste, it may help.

Hi Price Monkey,

Great to hear from you. I'm very well thank you, both life and business are going great.

I would be happy to help this client. The issue with jobs like this is that more often than not the client does not want "my" voice they merely want the cheapest price and I am left trying to guess what the client is prepared to pay. So, for a good open business relationship perhaps the client would tell me how much he would be prepared to pay per job and feel he is getting a really good deal. He knows his budget so the number must come from him.

Hope that helps.

Have a great day.



Philip

It's actually the voice of reason!

I wonder if this approach will ever work in real life.

What is this "real life" of which you speak?

I like that Philip.

Works much better than my standard: "sorry I don't do auctions".

You smoothie!

Production company replied about 5 mins ago with a rate suitable for someone with two Collies to feed.

I found one mistake in the original post.

Shouldn't it be "Dear Price Bunny"?
