Assignment: Build me a website for pharmaceutical sales.Implications: I will eventually provide javascript to be inserted into every page for automatic price updates.Style: Design must make customers feel safe and secure. I will only accept a design that makes me feel like this.Examples: Here is a GREAT idea of WHAT I WANT: http:epharmacist.com Reason: Epharmacist has a simple layout and the color scheme that I want. It makes me feel very safe and secure. Here is an idea of WHAT I DONT WANT: http:pillstore.com Reason: The layout is a bit too complicated. This just seems to be a runofthemill site, and the colors do not inspire security. They actually make me feel insecure. Also, I am not immediately presented with exactly what I was looking for. Copy: I will not require any copywriting, but I will need you to put dummy text in for me to change later, of course.In terms of stock images, I want one as close as possible to the image on Epharmacist. It makes me feel good.Thanks, and PM me with questions.
Bid Smart - The lowest bidder doesn't always get chosen, far from it. Persuade your buyer why they should pick you - and they will.
Research - If John has paid more than $500 a contract for his last 10 project, why would you think he is interested in your $10 bid? Check up on the buyer, bid what he expects, and deliver quality to match.
Read - Please read the bid request - I cannot emphasise this enough - if you do not read the bid request then you will not be chosen, this is pretty much certain. Mention the bid request specifically in your application, and don't forget to repeat the key deliverables.
Innovate - Suggest features the bidder didn't mention, talk about future extensions to the project, and discuss whether you think his or her approach is a good idea. Show interest, intellect, and willing.
