basically, I'm redesigning a e-commerce site for one of my clients, but I have a few problems.
1) A site like I Want One Of Those but not I Want One Of Those because they want a site that isn't like I Want One Of Those - that's what they want. I have to design a site which sells perfectly, is cheap, provides a good CMS, and is easy for them to maintain. And beat market leaders. Really? yes.
2) How much do I charge!?!? A three year deal cost £1399 for them with over 400 products. Maybe that's cheap. Maybe that's expensive. Either way, I got paid that much. But now, I don't know much to charge for the redesign. I was thinking half of that.
3) an e-commerce system that I can design for their shop for free. I can't find that either. Well, I found one site, but it's so highmaintenace that this is labelled at the top of my browser currently:
"FireFTP: Working... 0% of 3256 file(s) left - transferring at 0.01 KB/hour"
Okay, so maybe not that slow. But there are that many files and that's how it feels!
HELP!
Maybe I'm just being a little stupid by posting this? I dunno. Either way, if you have any ideas or tips, PLEASE help me!
