there was a shop on queen st.
"come as you are"
it's not a music shop paying tribute to nirvana...

it's so misleading...

From the firecrackers and honking I assume the Raptors won.

I'm quoting on a job that could take up my summer.
How much would you charge for a complete brand refresh – everything from the name of the company to the signage, ad templates, web/social presence – if you only had 2 months to turn it all around? For industry reg reasons most of it has to be locked in by Sept 1st, which means a lot has to be done in early Aug to meet print deadlines.
Client is willing to pay, but made an offhand comment "but not $15,000".
- $14,500hotroddy
- Keep the total project price the same but itemise the individual elements then the client can commission them as he wants.Morning_star
- 15K would be a bargain for all that.Gnash
- take the 8 weeks you have to do this and find a day rate you are comfortable with. 15K would be a $375 - which is not very high for a consulting gigGnash
- and you know you'll be working more than 9-5, 5-days/weekGnash
- The design of physical/web deliverables estimate is pretty direct (can shuffle hours around as needed) but the brand dev/concept is harder to sort out.i_monk
- ya, I know what you mean. When I get stuck on that stuff though I use the above formula to find my 'should i put pants on today' $ amountGnash
- Think of a number. Multiply it by 7. Add 6. Divide it by 5. Multiply it by itself... forget all that and charge them $30k or a $999 per month usage right.shapesalad

I'm only a few blocks from Dundas Square and the honking and shouting is only starting to slow down now, three hours later.
The rest of the country can go back to hating us tomorrow.

We were at our annual company get together....
We had a bunch of folks in from Toronto who were in the band that was due to be playing....they walked on stage at .9 on the clock and there’s a foul call on Golden State...
Kawhi Leonard makes 2 free throws....Raptors win it...
...Sherry and her band kick off, and the whole place goes mental.

drove the kids around downtown through the madness after the raptors won, it was quite the scenes of jubilation. Even saw a streaker!
Then I started thinking is this unique to sports? when else would we all come together and celebrate like this?
First man on Mars? curing cancer? ending warsr?

I was at the House of Lancaster on Bloor getting a lap dance when Curry missed the 3 point attempt and there was a mad scramble for the the ball. The strippers and some patrons were screaming I thought it was a raid.
