In reply to Chad.

yes I thought that would be a part of our strategies but it turns out that it is the kind of job that we are catering for a long time, a favor jobs like refurbishment or rectification. maybe its time to say……NO!

Thank you for linking to my post on Freelance Writing Gigs. It is important to convey your message to the client in a way that leaves him or her feeling positive, even if you won’t be working with that person going forward.

I have declined a few projects for ethics reasons alone. I have declined a lot of projects because I felt the rate was too low. I have done lots of favor jobs, but it is hard to make a living when that is every job in your shop.

I recently had to decline a project because I felt it was an aggressive timeline. If I wasn’t planning on traveling in the next month, I would of considered it. Regardless, its better for me to do good quality work that rushed work.
