Tuesday, 16 September 2008 Dear Griand, I take this opportunity to forward you this note with regard to reiterate the earnest interest I have previously expressed in assisting you with your project. Behind any successful partnership, there is the outline of a dedicated, an honest, and a hard working cooperation. This cooperation is only feasible through mutual respect of each other; and of course, respect is synonymous with understanding. Considering the budget of your Business, it is observably low comparing to the responsibilities. Nevertheless, and with reference to your last messages, which are in fact a portrayal of full courtesy and understanding words, I will be very much appreciative to work with a client exposing such moral fibre akin to yours; certainly, we will make excellent partners! Consequently, I do accept the hourly rate of $5 USD set for the project in question. I will be available from any time from now. Thanking you in advance for your kind benevolence. In awaiting your kind cooperation, I wish to extend my sincere appreciation and distinguish sentiments to you. Yours truly, Esther Asante P.S: Could you please reply to this message whichever your verdict may be? Thanks. |

| @Kilonzo, If you are happy to have other buyers see your essays you could go to my account and upload them to your portfolio. Otherwise it's probably quicker to check with PPH if there is a way to include them in a bid so nobody else has access. I don't think buyers get notified when people post here, so they may not even check the board regularly? Good luck, Ulrike |

| Hi Christine, Yes exactly. It is low but we got a few candidates successfully here. Maximum is USD5 / hour though, if you can accept this rate, please submit your bid. Thank you. |

| Good afternoon, Can you please confirm that your project includes 42 hours work over 2 weeks for less than £100 fixed fee? I am quering this as that calcuates to £2.30 per hour which seems very low. I have all the required skills and operate a Virtual Assistant business within which I perform all of the above tasks for clients. I look forward to your clarification. Chris. |

| Dear Girand, Does it matter when the daily 3 hours are? For example I could do 7am until 8am, 1pm to 2pm and 5pm to 6pm. Would this be effective? Many thanks, Felicity |

| Hi - I noticed you're located in the U.S. I just wanted to clarify that by stating "overseas", you actually wanted someone overseas, and not just outside of the U.S. (I live in Canada). Thanks, Jayne |
