Do not quote large off-putting fees for design work unless I am prepared for people to say yes.

Heehee. My dad has that trouble now and then. He's a land surveyor who does it free-lance, for fun, on the weekends (one of those happy people that adores his work) but every now and then someone asks him to bid on a job he thinks will be a lot of trouble to do. So he bids high. Way, way high.

And every now and then, they take it. Once, they took it without blinking an eye, and my dad was left thinking, gee... I should have asked for more! But what are you going to do? Say no?? ;)
