Discounted Pricing Now Available

posted by Benjamin C. to Two Minutes 1 Comment

From time to time we stumble upon videos or images that cause us to take our creative lasers away from creative production. With all of the amazing videos on the internet we had to create what we call the two minute rule. Basically, the way it works is if one of our designers or other team members finds something on the net they feel everyone has to see, they can send it out to the rest of the team, but you only get two minutes a day. This works pretty well for us, and keeps us on task.

A while back we found this video which is a great satirical view of client vendor relationships. We can’t say that anyone has ever asked us to design anything for them at a discount, or we get a lot of requests for free or spec work. In fact, most of our clients are very happy with the pricing we offer as a boutique creative agency, but we can relate to the implied ridiculousness of this video.

I know you probably haven’t experienced this type ludicracy from any of your clients, so you may not be able to appreciate the subtle humor of this video. We assure you, its a rare occurrence that we run into people that think its OK to ask us to do work for free or at a discount, but this video has done a great job of portraying how those people are perceived in the marketplace.

Okay, this has been a moment with Ben.

    Wow… I loved this… I SO MUCH understand this… and it is nice to know I am not alone on those rare, but real, efforts to depreciation my hard work. I too am so grateful to those who pay me what I am worth!
    Thanks for the snicker, the frown, and the knowledge that I am in a great community of creatives!
