6 Tips for Stress-free Consulting Client Management

On the Profitable Joyful Consulting podcast, I teach you how to increase your profits and enjoy your business more. In this episode, you’ll learn how to have a more profitable and joyful business through stress-free client management.

We’ve talked in the past about both selecting perfect clients and getting results through your clients. Client selection is the number one determiner of profitability (and I would add: joy) in your work with clients.

But once you have that client on board, the next most important thing is client management. We have to manage the work and the clients so that we are able to achieve results through them – and in this episode, I teach you how.

Key areas discussed in this episode:

Why conflict in the beginning of a client relationship can sometimes be a good thing.
