..... that the price you charge clients should be in direct proportion to what their annual revenue is......
basically...... a little more then they can afford...... only so that it matters to them if they lose the money by not finishing.....
I have tons of clients who have paid me and they never give me content to finish....
They are like ......just put it up........ I gave you that txt the other day..... and I am like ......it's a paragraph..... I know so isn't that enough?
NOOOOOOOOOOO ITS NOT ENOUGH YOU PISS ANT!!!!!!!!

i think charging your client based on their annual revinue is a good thing to do in some cases, but not all.
also, if you want content from someone you should ask them for brochures, mission statements, catalogs, other ads, &c, ive found that most of the time they dont know what you mean by 'content'. in my personal experience anyways.

no they know......I gave them wireframes......and ask them to write up each section.....
I also told them I need txt and images for teh site.......
they know what content means..... they are just idiots......most of my clients say...... can't you write it.....
but they dont want to pay for me to write it...... I dont want to write it .....I am a designer not a writer......its very annoying.....
also......its the fact that they dont want to do any work .....they just want it to magically appear online

There is a sliding scale. But, there is also fair and transparent pricing.
Tough rope to walk though.

Are you for real? Hey, why can't groceries cost in proportion to what everybody makes! Oh, maybe everybody should have the same salary! Save it, Fidel!
