[Asterisk-biz] Business question

[Alexander Wiercinski]

Hi

I think not many on this list can advise on how much you can charge your
friend :).  But the question is valid anyway.  Since this is your first
"commercial" instalation I would guess that on any contracted work you would
loose money or hair.  Thus it will be as much benefit for your friend,
assuming he will like the end result, as it will be to you in terms of
experience and reference.  

My advise is do the instalation for free. If your friend is happy with the
instalation make a support contract with him (per hour workd or per month).
 Since he hasn't paid you for the instalation he will not feel you "owe" him
support for free - as many commercial clients do.
