More work, I promise.

Client: It was my mum’s 60th at the weekend and I filmed two hours of party footage and vox pops of my family sending her best wishes. I want you to turn in into a 10-15 minute video, I’ll give you £30.

Me: That’s nowhere near enough for my time. [I usually do 2-3 nightclub promos for £100].

Client: Yeah but it’s a present for my mum so I can’t afford to pay as much.

Me: I’ve never met your mum and I’m not willing to give her £70 worth of my time, especially if you’re only putting up £30 of your own money for it.

Client: I’m not asking you to give my mum £70, just do her video. I’m paying £30 of my own money. And I’m thinking of starting a business filming birthdays, this’ll definitely lead to more work, I promise.
