But We’re a Non-Profit!
At one time or another we’ve all received this call. Usually the conversation goes something like this:
Client: “We have a project coming up, we saw your website and absolutely love your work. We’re looking for a photographer we can build a relationship with.”
Me: “That’s great, thanks for the compliment, tell me a bit about your project.”
The client gives you the details, closing with, “And as you probably know, we’re a non-profit, so please give us your non-profit rate.”
It’s at about this time I want to blurt out in response to their, “but we’re a non-profit”: “WELL, I’M NOT!”
