Something else to keep in mind:
People who don't want to fork over money often fall into one of three groups:
1. Already in a financial bind themselves, which means chances are they may fall apart and never pay you.2. The cheapskates. These have money but have gotten their money by being slimey fuckers. They will fuck you forever, and never ever be good to deal with.
3. Those who don't know. Oftentimes, a lot of clients (local yokels, not big brands) simply do not know how much things cost, or their little minions who are sent out to "find a designer" don't know. These types are actually not bad at all to work with, if you can find a way educate them and get them on your side.
A good approach: Treat them like #3, but prepare that they are #1 or #2.
