A new business opened up in my village so I thought I'd have a chat about design & print. First time I'd tried cold calling of that nature and they've taken me up on the offer, buying business cards and posters...all good, you may think.
No. Well, first of all I mixed up my figures despite knowing them inside out on any other day, so I cut myself short of a tenner. Then all of the staff basically surround me asking why I am charging design costs
After negotiation they bring me down another £10 (at this point I didn't realise that was actually £20)
Not all bad though, they wanted to change the size of the posters so I had to get another quote, turns out my £20 loss, is now only £15. Still can't believe how much difference a simple mistake made
At the end of the day it's only £15 but....£15 I could have had
