Well, here's this as well: I did refer one of our other current clients to the company. He came to me as a freelancer originally for editing, but I told him he could get the whole enchilada if he went with my company. I could have taken the job and told him afterward, but I was thinking about his best interests (and, behold, the interest of the company).
I technically talked him out of a contract with me. I didn't do a lick of work for the guy even though he did have work done through the company.
