10 Client Nightmares & How to Shut Them Down (Fast!) - Episode 48
Hey, pixel peeps! 👋 Welcome back to Two Pixels Off, the podcast for creative entrepreneurs, designers, and freelancers. In this episode, we're tackling some of the most common client challenges you'll face in your freelance or agency journey—rapid-fire style! 🎤 What’s in This Episode? We’re diving into real-world scenarios that designers, web developers, and creative professionals face daily. From clients who want unlimited revisions to those who don’t pay on time, we’re sharing hot takes, strategies, and proven solutions to keep your projects running smoothly. 🔥 Episode Highlights: ⏩ Client doesn’t like the design? Set expectations & lead the conversation. ⏩ Budget too low? Negotiate value instead of lowering prices. ⏩ Unlimited revisions? Set boundaries & charge for extra work. ⏩ Micromanaging clients? Establish authority & guide the process. ⏩ Late payments? Automate invoicing & introduce late fees. ⏩ Rush projects? Implement a rush fee & protect your time. ⏩ Scope creep? Stick to the contract & charge for extras. ⏩ Clients with unrealistic visions? Educate & sell them on the right solution. 💡 Key Takeaways for Freelancers & Agencies: ✔ Always set clear contracts & expectations upfront. ✔ Communicate with confidence—you’re the expert, not just an order-taker. ✔ Use tools like Wix Studio to streamline invoicing, payments, and client management. ✔ Charge what you're worth & don’t be afraid to say no or charge more for extra work. 💬 What client struggles have you faced?
