The Power of Saying "No" To Crazy Clients

from Freelance to Founder · host Millo

Kirstie runs a design business and a client emails her at 5:22 p.m. on a Friday needing an ad designed that same night. Sound familiar? Preston and Clay break down the real question behind rush fees—not just what to charge, but whether you should say yes at all.
