Graphics help needed with presentation

973 views21 repliesLast post: 7/12/2004
Hi,

I'm looking for a qualified person to develop a presentation package for me. This "package" would be mailed to my potential customers. I need a creative and experienced person that can not only do the graphics, but as well help me develop an effective presentation.

Regards,

Gilbert

What media? What type of presentation? What is your budget? What type of business? Why did you accept a job you cannot handle? ZONED!

You know actually I was thinking the same thing. No budget was mentioned. What type of presentation wasn't mentioned. I'm guessing that they think that they are going to get a lot of email inquiries to their post.

I can't fault them though with accepting a job like that with no previous related experience - a lot of us have been there but we managed to get it done.

I have accepted a few jobs that I needed to "farm out" but never without having a reliable and professional outlet for the job, before I did. As hard as it is to gain a good professional reputation, it is much much harder to repair a bad one.

Who said he accepted a job he couldn't handle.
It says the "package" would be mailed to "his" potential clients.

It is obviously a marketing tool for his own company, not something for someone else.

Yeah, he left out a bunch of needed information, but you seem to be adding some of your own.

Bah! No one posting idiotic "do my graphics for me" on usenet is ever going to turn into a profitable client. I haven't seen one who when questioned offered more that "credit on our link page!" as compensation.

Nice attitude. I'm pretty sure you will never find out
if there are legitimate customers or not. For you it's
100% negative. If I were looking through this news-

be right at the top of the list. : -)

Hi,

I originated the post with a request for " a qualified person to develop a presentation package for me" I don't think there was the suggestion that I needed someone to "complete" a job for me.

I simply determined that this ng would have a wealth of talented people and I needed someone to "develop a presentation". I didn't think it was appropriate to load the post with great detail on what the project required. The details should and would be outlined at a later time.

For your information, I received an excellent presentation in my mailbox by a eastern European graphics person. We discussed the project and pricing. He was professional and to the point. He is the type of person I always hope to do business with.

Complete, develop, same thing.

Yeah, never supply details, people might laugh even more.

Sure you did! I believe you, I really do.

What is considered bad by you may be acceptable to him, there are a lot of people out there that would not recognise poor quality if it bit them on the nose. If it is better than an attempt their attempt then they are happy.

A client of mine bought some flyers with the
name of the street his business is on misspelled
in 30 pt. type. He got a reprint but passed out
the typos first, about 1000. What a deal. The
lettering on his window front has two glaring
misspellings and he published a picture of
his storefront with huge grease stains on the
sidewalk in front of his biz.

You got it right when you said that some people
just don't notice quality. Anyway.

I am thinking a Power Point presentation or a PDF presentation with accompanying brochure? Sounds like an interesting project and would like to hear more.
