You told us some good information and here's some notes

Dear John,

here's some notes from the good info you gave us:

  • Always break down my invoice in case they ask for it later
  • £50 an hour 
  • Look at the client brief 
  • Clarify the brief with the client so you're on the same page
  • Evaluation and estimation
  • Add on any costs of necessary purchases - memory sticks etc.
  • Itemise and estimate all content needed and the timing - tell them what they're paying for
  • Double check everything before you start
  • Agree over email as it's date stamped
  • Call them by their first name
  • "Can't wait to get started" seem enthusiastic 
  • "Minus any unforeseen details" these things do happen and need to be talked about briefly 
  • Put your time frame into words they understand - make sure you give ourself enough time as you may be working on something else already
  • Project terms
  • Don't accept checks 
  • Use official purchase numbers
  • Don't ever send invoices to the client if they have an accounts department
  • Make a Linkedin -don't say student say what you are!
To do now:

Choose someone and get in contact with them. Who? What to ask? and write 250 words about it.
