- I would turn them down by saying, "I wish I could do the job for that

- My partly based on how busy I am. When I'm busy, it's a good feeling to
- be a little more selective of your clients; however, don't turn them away
- on a bad note.

- One other option would be to find an animator, preferably on this list :)
- or in your local area, with experience in LW who could do it for that
- price. This way you don't lose the client. At the same time you could
- markup the price of your other animators work and make a little extra money.
