  conflicts of interest

  Posted by Nick Williams on 16 January 2009 at 15:07

  i was thinking and was getting a little stumped with an outcome of a situation but here goes

  you have a client who has used you for many years and you deal direct with them

  now this client gets some work also done via a marketing company

  the marketing company contacts you to do work for the client but via them

  what if the company comes to you for a price on the same work you have already priced out via the marketing company? they will have obviously put their mark up on it

  anyone had this dilema before?

  We would have the marketing company on trade pricing if they wanted. Meaning they could charge what we would charge a retail customer and they can make a margin on it.

  If you’ve already given the client the price give the marketing company the same price or offer them trade pricing in the hope of more work.

  The marketing company get paid anyway for providing their expertise in marketing.
