> What I do not understand how could an enterprise be so incompetent not to attract any clients in 6 months? Most likely in my opinion: they priced themselves out of the market by raising the rates quoted to potential clients in an attempt to cover the ballooning overhead. It wouldn't do to actually land contracts and still go out of business, now would it? Another possibility: They responded to RFPs with proposals that drastically expanded the scope of what was requested (same motivation as above). There are ways to push clients a bit out of their comfort zone and still get their business, but if what was asked for is a new logo and you respond with a proposal for a global corporate identity system and advertising campaign, you might not get very far.
