The Opportunity - Fighting my corner to get paid

I finally got a response off of one of the owners of Pump'N'Grind. Unfortunately, this isn't really what I wanted it to be. 

In a nutshell, he said they can't afford to pay me for the work, and I tried to politely advise them on how we could come to a mutually beneficial agreement. I tried to stay positive, saying how I love the independent business side of Leeds and 100% support their start-up, but also how I am a start-up business myself.

Even if they just offered me free cake and tea for the rest of the time I am here, that would be great. Currently, I have got not one single offer from them and this debate is still going on unresolved. I'm a bit annoyed to be honest! 

If their business is going to benefit from me painting a mural and designing leaflets to advertise for artwork, then I should benefit from some of that profit. They wouldn't make coffee for free, would they?!
