When it comes for content I tell them flat out that my fees are not limited to the design of the website, but all the work I do for your company. It's just cheaper and easier for them to supply me with a typed rough draft of exactly what they wanted included in their websites. You have fairly generic sections their C:\ What you include in your home and locations page are fairly straight forward. Simply have the owner of the business type up a brief history of his business from beginning to present and then some future goals. Again, contact is fairly straight forward as well. I once had a client give me the run around creating content. As 'CEO' of his three man organization he was above me apparently. I let him give me the run around all he wanted. Everytime I typed something up and faxed it over for his approval he told me he didn't like it but was [i]far[/i] too busy for me, I simply accepted it and started from scratch. At the end of the month when he got my bill I had his attention. It ended up costing him almost 3/4's the cost of the website to complete the content. Naturally I gave him a break because I didnt want him to tell people I was a terrible business man, but for monthly maintanence, he has a copy of exactly what he wants ready for me. It's cheapr and simplier. Time is money and our time happens to be in demand. Don't waste your time writing about a home cleaning service. It's good business practice in any field to focus on what your being paid to do and let others do what anyone else can do. CEO's shouldn't be doing stock boy work, and web designers shouldn't be writing content. Of course if you have to, charge an arm and a leg. :D -Jestah Cell [url=http://faq.ozoneasylum.com/FaqWiki/shownode.php?id=277]277[/url] Loading...
