About this episode

The episode discusses strategies for finding and managing good clients with insights from guest Tas Bober.

Finding clients is hard enough - finding GOOD ones? Feels damn near impossible. I enlisted the help of Tas Bober to help navigate this complex field of getting client work, and explored topics related to CRO/client work as well! We got into: - Bringing confidence to the client relationship (you don’t always have to cave in to EVERY little freaking thing they want you to do) - Running from bad clients when they don’t pass the vibe check (and how to find shitty clients BEFORE they pay you) - How to talk to clients (and stakeholders) appropriately without talking DOWN at them (hint: treat them like they’re children. It works.)
