Paid Drupal services

We're looking for an experienced Drupal development group to work on a community/social networking project.

This is a medium-sized project by which I mean that it's probably 2-4 people for 2-4 months for the first phase (depending on how fast and efficient you are). It will require some module development and some theming. It also has a Facebook component.

After the first phase, we have lot more functionality planned, so this could be a source of ongoing work.

If you might be interested, we'd like to proceed like this:

Hi, I know this is off topic, but I'm not part of any other web design forums and I needed to get some opinions.

This doesn't really have anything to do with Drupal at all Infact, but I was wondering how other web development companies went about charging for content.

9/10 Times I do a web project the client is not willing to supply me with usable content for the website (Images, Text, ect...) and I'm stuck loosing money by waiting for the client. Is there a simple solution for this? How do you guys go about this. Let me know - Thanks for the help.
