When I started Flat Rate, I wanted to be different than all the other blogging-social-media-consulting firms that were out there. There’s a lot of mess and crap that comes with this business, and I didn’t want any part of the hucksterist opportunists that litter the space and fleece real businesses out of their hard earned money. I didn’t want to create stupid contracts or claim that the designs our team creates is anything less than Work For Hire.
My company will execute the fundamentals, but we will and must be different in word and deed.
