Cheers! I have signed up to the meetup.com site... nothing as yet in Suffolk so may have to venture further afield like London and other surrounding areas.
Mods, please move this if I have posted this in wrong area...
Just crossed my mind if these things happen for us designers. I have been trying to Google this but have come up trumps. Also, if they exist, are they worth attending?

No worries Nick! I haven't had such a great last fair few months due to personal issues... only just saw this, sorry. Still trying to break into the freelance world too!

Like yourself, my degree is not related to graphic design. Still getting to the point of freelancing as a designer as I have built up a good portfolio of voluntary work. I highly recommend voluntary work haha! A good step forward. If people want to pay, work out a cheap basic rate of your...
Hi guys, I am trying to design my new companys website. Bad idea as I am more of a arty farty designer using Dreamweaver haha!

Ha! I have trained clients to know the difference fortunately. Unfortunatley, I get clients who are complete derps and don't know a thing. I just have to bite my tongue and always explain the difference. Oh well!
Oh yeah, once I had a client who wanted a logo I designed in Illustrator for High...
This is useful. Something to base how much to pay yourself so you can disipline yourself with the cashflow! Saying that, with the current job I am in is paying far less than the minimum in my area. Bloody robdogs!
Not much you can do to be honest. They are the client and you have to adhere to their decisions, whether their right or wrong (latter most of the time!). What you can do, is if they need promotional material is to subtley change the concept over time. I have done this to one particular big...
