Landed a new project today

1

I landed a nice chunk of business from a graphic design company. They design all sorts of creative except websites.

We have been talking for the past couple of months but nothing was solid. They were talking about sending me all of thier web jobs that come in that they would typically pass up.

I would then work behind the scenes for my own set price and the end company would never know the wiser.

I quoted $3500 for this particular job and I am pumped. becaue they are happy with my quote. Its not that complex of a job either. I just wanted to bump up my pricing. Which worked! WIth the half up front I now will have a down payment on my Harley!!!

WOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Hey congrats, good to hear that another fellow Kirupian is doing well. =)

About a week ago I landed 2 mid range site projects totaling $4200 and I’m set for the next 2 months so I’m happy as well. =)

That should take a nice chunk out of my student loans. :beam:

Same here,
networking with people is a great strategy. People know people who know people.

My old boss (who got laid off) knows the owner of the graphic design firm. He threw my name and that was that.

Cold calling and emails work well too. I like to be a bit more personal though.

A handshake and a smile go a long way.
