Post A unique offer.. for a programmer

I am the principal partner in a New York financial firm that specializes in securiities-based lending. Our average loan is in the mid seven figures.

We are willing to provide fee equal to 25 basis points (one fourth of one percent) on the gross loan value of every loan we close that somes through an inquiry using the simple Iphone App we will be asking you to develop. This is a simple, no-brainer app for a good developer. It will simply gather info on a client's portfolio, there name phone, email address, and will send to us via a simple email. Nothing fancy. if you wanted to add a few bells and whistles whereby when they enter a particular stock ticker, then note how many shares they have, they can see what the value of their portfolio is in real time. Or, since our loan-to-value against the portfolios is around 70-90 percent, you could take that figure and show them their gross loan estimate.

That's it. Simple. If you can do it for Droid too, great, but at least IPHONE.

As for your pay, you'll be paid by wire at closing. A $1m transaction coming through the App you created will earn you a payday of $2,500 - for just one deal. We will be promoting use of the app among all our clients, so you would get a piece of every deal they do.

Are you good enough, or just too greedy and without sufficient drive and belief in yourself to make this happen?

Visit our website at Securities Lending and Securities Finance Services - No Title Transfer. for more.

Yeah, those are the types of jobs I flee from. Even if the guy doesn't expect work done for no money up front. It's amazing how poor some people's people skills are isn't it?

I don't really see your objection. Speculative development is a perfectly valid way of doing business. If you want to be paid by the hour, don't take this type of contract.

I would want some guarantee that I'd receive the 25 bp fee for all leads generated by this app, plus some idea of the expected volume of leads and closure rate before our company would consider it, but wouldn't dismiss it out of hand.

This is a pretty good deal, but only if you get a legally-binding contact first.

My objection wasn't with the payment method, it was with the attitude. I've been freelancing long enough to know which clients give me maximum headache for minimum return.

I'm sure it could be a lucrative offer. I guess, in the end, It's not that I'm too greedy, it's that I'm not greedy enough.
