Quote: "I own a studio with 5 people(one producer, one programmer,one designer, two artists). I think part-time job is not a realistic way to make a living. 1000 EUR is far smaller than the outcome for the studio."
I hear the claim 'I have company' from prospective clients from developing countries, many many times. They all say that. As well as nice round figures, its funny how everything cost 1000 something or other regardless of the job. Another thing they do as well, sub contract, its all about winning the contract, from there they go and hire someone else. Give a job to many in a developing county, next thing you hear is, my company can do x'y'z. Have you got anything else, (they often can't even do the small job you have initially given them) but you will hear
my company (1 guy is now miraculously over night a whole company) we are experienced in x'y'z (ie everything) because the sole developer you are talking to, will go and find a company or group to do it, with the massive fee they think a stupid westerner will pay, they will then go and find a company out there to do it for the
real cost and pocket the difference. I have heard this all before, many times. Its like they are cloned, same predictable behavior every time.
Lets put things to the test, halley, where is your web site? where is your company web site that has 5 full time people working for it? You see I make apps (on a web site), I dont have 4 like you, I have 25, plus a
lot of other projects in the works, and guess what, its 1 person, I may hire an odd person here and there, but its just me doing it part time. You have already complained on the boards that you are making squat on your apps in another thread. Where is the money to pay 5 people full time from?
I will be contacting them if you are thinking of grabbing a fake one off the net.
I am going to remind you 'first' of your other thread. (emphasis mine)
