How do you guys handle your freelance holds on gigs? In my experience almost every time I was put on hold for a job I ended up booking it and I had no other competing offers at the time... recently I was put on hold for a job with a low rate... i was just asked to hold the same dates for my top rate/ great client as well... obviously I am not turning down the later but was wondering how any of you handle this in a professional way, I never like to burn bridges... how should i word this in an email and look professional... looking forward to hearing your responses
