    Charge a different rate for non portfolio work?

    I think that's where it boils down to. I'm forever doing one of those companies favours, they always screw me right down on price, they are forever blaming their client as a reason for lack of budget, tight timescales, refusal to allow you to use your work in your portfolio etc and I'm starting...

    Charge a different rate for non portfolio work?

    Hi just wanted to poll opinion really on whether anybody here charges extra (whether they declare it to the clients or not) for work they are not allowed to feature on their own website portfolio. I have been doing a fair bit of sub contract work for a couple of clients. They do try and get you...
