Bit of a WWYD question
Last year worked on a gig which I got really friendly with the people invlvoed and made quite a name for myself with those in high places, and as such got some repeat business and lots of extensions.
They have come back to me "informally" as they are having problems (surpsied they went 9 months without asking for help but thats another story), still quite friendly with most of the project team and want to keep the Execuitive Manager sweet as he is a great contact to have for future work. I bled them dry last time so suspect there is no budget for this, so anytihng would just be free advice in the hope of getting some paid work in return at a later date, I have moved everything so they are using their company email address for contact rather than Linkedin or Facebook and have stated that my hands are tied with liability insurance etc. in case something goes bang.
How would you approach some ad-hoc work and keep the realtionship but not open yourself up
