This is a long story but quite interesting I swear.
I was driving home from work one day when I saw a sign for a graphics company that said "LOGO'S". Well the apostrophe drove me nuts and so I called them as I drove by to tell them that since they printed business cards and all that they should have their sign correct and remove the apostrophe. Long story short the guy offered me a job! I went for an interview today and it is really something. He wants my job to be some proofreading and writing (he even wants me to write a children's book!) and the rest sales on commission with gas paid for. He wants me to make a proposal of what I want and how much I want to be paid and I don't know where to start! I need to know how much to ask for stuff. I don't even know how much proofing there will be. I was looking through their books and there was a lot of mistakes in their sample work and I told him I need to go through all of their stuff before the final printing! But the sales would be 15% commission once I got going. He is into Trump and his philosophies and will start my commission at 35% to make me feel good and drop it to 15% where it will stay. The sales will be going to businesses to get them to use us for their graphics needs such as logos, business cards, brochures, etc. I really need to know how much in store work I will be doing. Does anyone have advice on how to make this proposal? He says he pays well. The other thing is the store is messy and not run as business-like as I would like. I think they should improve.
