Timothy (also "Tim" Or "Timmy) Ziaja, Zinc, A Marketing Guild Tim Ziaja of Zinc owes outside vendors thousands of dollars. Minneapolis Minnesota
Tim Ziaja of Zinc, A Marketing Guild, owes a number of vendors, including myself, many thousands of dollars in outstanding payments for marketing and design projects he hired us to complete. To my knowledge, he owes money to at least seven different people, totaling more than $60,000.
All of these invoices are extremely overdue (more than 60 days past date of receipt), and some of them are more than six months past due. Upon communicating with him about such issues, Tim typically responds with lines like "I'm not a bank", "You'll get paid when the client pays me", and even "I can't afford to pay this much" - that is, if you get a response from him at all.
I filed this a report as a warning to anyone currently or considering working with Tim, as he cannot be trusted and the business community should know about this.

Careful with your wording here for you are walking as fine line of slander. Words like "to the best of my knowledge" is purely heresay. It also means that you are spreading false accusations if you don't know the whole truth. Did you have a signed contract? Did you specify a pay schedule? Did you deliver what was expected? Most freelancers, including myself, are conditioned to a weekly payckeck having left a secure full time job to venture out on their own. It's the lag time that usually prompts an individual to get a little surly surrounding payments due. If you are truly good at your craft you should have enough work on the backburner to bridge you through until the said company can make good on their promise. In my experience most companies, be it a start up or an established corporation is behind on getting payments sent out in a timely manner, even with a signed contract. Change your tude and maybe you'll get paid.
