Those 'inept' business types are your customers.... When I get a customer who doesn't understand why he should be paying me a certain rate etc, I take the time to document the advantages, to show and demonstrate the superior skills I deliver, I make sure that he understand that I value his commitment and expenditure in hiring me for a project instead of someone else.
I don't call him 'inept' and blame the customer. Maybe you should start by looking at yourself and your own marketing techniques first.

It is a prevailing view among many inept business types that programming is a fancy form of typing. -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web : http://www.evaristesys.com/ Tel : (+1) (678) 954-0670 Direct : (+1) (678) 954-0671 Mobile : (+1) (706) 338-8599 _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
