Time From To Content
15:01 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All that's true, at least for me
15:01 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Are your prices part of your conditions?
15:01 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All I don't have a trick or strategy
15:02 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Ah, thats what you mean.
15:02 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All yes, I study the text, the offer of the client and simply reply with my acceptance or my own offer
15:03 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All if the offer is not good, I explain why, if it is for the technical content or other reason...
15:03 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All I'm off for some coffee. I stay online.
15:04 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All i can negotiate up to some point, but if i find the offer tending towards offensive, i simply refuse it
15:05 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All I'm back.
15:05 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All I think we should not consider an offer offensive, simply not accept it.
15:06 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All I also start with taking a good look at the text. You have to. Some clients don't have a clue about what they're sending you. Even if they know, eg, that it's a technical text, or a medical text, they don't always seem to know that there are lots of sub specialisations.
15:06 Jun 6, 2014 Lucia Leszinsky: 855539 All Do you have a maximum percentage in mind that you know you are willing to give up when negotiating with clients?
15:06 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All what someone consider offensive could be the affordable for other...
15:07 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All I don't have a max percentage in mind.
15:07 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All true, Cesar, but i mean below that level
15:07 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All I think he meant "reacting unfriendly" when he said "offensive"
15:07 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All a, sorry, my name is Vinita and i'm female
15:08 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Then why are you starlightaloud?
15:08 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Previous member of Girls Aloud?
15:08 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All no!
15:08 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All why nobody has webcam?
15:08 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Oh.
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 starlightaloud: 1624756 All have, but don't like using it
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Ha, good question.
15:09 Jun 6, 2014 César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323 All are you all so ugly? :)
