Services discussion is the right place to be but frankly speaking a newbie account wont helped you be trustworthy but if you will vouchs your services or skills that you have let them try to a high ranking member and trustworthy with the green trust in the profile that will comment on your service after. It wont be complicated if you will provide your heart out confidence on that matter.
Not really, I think this is based on what kind of business is being done; I actually mean to say it depends on what kind of service he or she is offering is it type of service that requires clients to pay first before their services are being carried, or is it the type whereby services are first being carried out and after that its then up to the client to pay.
If its the latter, then I think this dude is running the risk of working and not getting paid by wicked clients. Thats it
but if its the first, where clients have to pay first, clients will also be afraid of paying and not having their work done or when its done, it ends up being a piece of crap.
