The great portion of my "one shots" are for companies and individuals with which I have other business arrangements.

I never ask what the job pays, and they (the client(s) never ask what I charge. Generally, within a month, I get a check for more than enough, and i have taken a step to further cement the business arrangement.

One job a week is devoted to my nursing home reform group. I find an individual who wants me to play, and tell them to write a check to the group. That way, it's tax deductible, and I feel good about my $1,000.00 plus monthly contribution.


"Win-win" for sure.
