I am a freelance developer and added footnote to my invoices explaining I donate 1% of the amount to an open-source project used for the assignment. I ask them to propose the projects they prefer but almost no one does.
- lars_francke 10y agoMy assumption would be that the people handling invoices are just not involved in that kind of stuff. At least when you're dealing with 'bigger' clients with their own billing departments. I really like the idea but maybe talk to your direct point of contact at the client instead?
- williamdclt 10y agoSounds like a very good idea. Companies should do that !
- brianwawok 10y agoThey should. Although I guess in a perfect market with two identical companies.. the one without the donations will have 1% more cashflow and be able to underbid the nice competitor by 1%. (1% is likely to small to make a difference, but a fun thought experiment).
