May have a potiential client. But is this a red flag?
To get a "feel" for this person, I emailed him or her some questions (the target market, the product, yadda yadda).
So this person sends me an email, telling me about his or her practice. As I'm reading it, I come to this line:
"I've taken a step back to evaluate how I can better help my clients, but more importantly how I can build a successful business." (my emphasis)
Yeah, I know people are selfish beings and always look out for their own best interest. But coming right out and saying, "Me 1st, my clients 2nd" kind of rubs me the wrong way.
This person seems sincere about helping people, otherwise. So maybe the quote above wasn't a true reflection of intention.
But the bluntness of the remark kind of scares me. Do you think I should proceed with the negotiations, or steer clear of this person?
I mean, I get the feeling that, no matter what I hand in, it's not going to be "good enough." But who knows?
I test products... before I give my final review.
