The Vendor Client relationship - in real world situations

This is an awesome example of what many clients will pull with a photographer. Just doesn't make sense and is very rediculous when it is pulled on a hair stylist or restaurant, right? Then why is it just common practice when it is pulled on a professional photographer. Just doesn't make sense.
In the video, you see that NO ONE is budging. No one is even contemplating doing what the costumer is asking. Therein lies the difference. Many photographers WILL come down on a price, do it with expectation of getting better job later or simply just for credit. This just happened to me a few days ago. "I want to use 2-4 images for our (large business) website." said the client. "I'll give you credit to the images."
Think about this video when 'working with' your next client.
