Red Flag Clients You Need to Avoid

In this episode we're chatting about those red flags that pop up in our clients and potential clients from time to time. Take it from me, someone with a lot of experience, I still can get caught out with red flags. Sometimes you need to look back and reflect and learn from these mistakes - luckily for you, I've compiled them all up to help you out! RED FLAGS: Asking for a discount Can't make time for a discovery call Starts to ghost you when it comes time to contract/invoice Someone who grills you about growth during the discovery call Your business styles just simply don't align (don't force yourself to change) When they won't commit to a 3-month minimum contract When they want to put you on a "trial period" When they don't want to pay for content creation but their social content at the moment is really bad When they aren't showing respect for your work hours The client who wants endless meetings - but is on your lowest package Traditional or older businesses who aren't willing to adapt When it feels like they want an employee not a contractor If you have the time, please could you rate and review this podcast or subscribe to it.
