2) Yes, I did make the acquaintance of a local (!) company, which I ended up having a 10 year relationship with. I also had a few of entertaining inquiries, none of which got me in trouble with the law, but also didn't make me any money. (Know when to say "no".)
- bartvk 6y agoFantastic to hear. 400 bucks is extremely cheap for a long term relationship with a client. Agencies in Europe put 20% on top of your rate.
