If you were here last week you may have read about the man who was - rather cleverly in my opinion - invoicing companies for the time he spent interacting with their brand. You can read the original post here. I - rather cleverly in many people's opinion - decided to send a counter invoice. The other day he replied. Though sadly he did not include a cheque. Amongst other things he said:

Your 85% discount is the sign of a true gentleman and it's much appreciated. I do of course have no other option but to pass this cost on to the companies who I'm still awaiting payment from, as the 167 minutes you spent is ultimately because of them.

He has added my letter and invoice to his #sixweeks website, so if you want to read it you can click here. I'm not taking it any further. Malawi calls.
Show Me The Money

I have to hand it to this bloke. He's clever. He's charging businesses for his time basically. His premise is that by interacting with businesses he is making them look popular. It's a bit more complicated than that, but he has a whole website dedicated to it so there is little point in me repeating it all. Just take my word for it. Anyway, he has had some success. Pret A Manger have paid him. Yes, he is clever. But is he really clever? I intend to find out. So this afternoon I wrote to him. And I invoiced him. (You'll have to click on the images to read them).

Yes, I am well aware that there is an unnecessary 'with' in the third paragraph. I have little time to correct this now though as I am busy with importance.
