Re: FLASH: Sharing Business Resources

[Dorian Nisinson]

This is a great idea Marc. I could edit my estimate form to be Flash

specific or web specific and share that. 

	An estimate form is an excellent way to winnow out the non-serious

clients. I don't start work until the client has signed the agreement

and sent it back to me. The serious clients like the estimate form

because it clarifies what they can expect and what it will cost and what

constitues additional work for which there is an additional charge. It

also means you get to really listen to what the client wants and

expects. The idea is to avoid bad surprises on both sides.

	One question. I use QuarkXpress to make all my business forms because

the graphic control is just so superior to a standard word processor. I

could try converting it to Word 2, but it will lose a lot of the

structure that way. Of course the concepts will still be there.
