Easy to say "win them back" so go do it.

Will be reviewing your members area soon. Unless you decide not to let me.
Sure email me and i'll get you a login.

Btw the economics have to come in to play as well. If one photographer is willing to cut his fee to get work (because nobody is hiring him) and another guy refuses to cut his fee. Why pay the higher rate or even pay them more? I know the whole you get what you pay for. But when people are out of work that isn't necessarily true.

BTW check out the book "Drive" the author actually argues you get less the more you pay staff/contractors.
