You love your clients. You want to give great service.
But some days… it feels like they care less than you do.
They show up late. They delay decisions. They ghost on deadlines or treat your calendar like it’s optional. And you? You’re left juggling everything—while slowly burning out in the proces...
You handed off the final file. You’ve wrapped the deliverables. But the project still isn’t done—because your client just sent another email.
“Can we tweak this?”
“Actually, could we go back and revise that?”
“Oh—and one more thing…”
If it feels like your projects never end—no matter what you deli...
When your contract feels clear enough but you still find yourself overexplaining, chasing payments, or second-guessing how to move forward…
You might not have a contract problem.
You might have a limbo problem.
And most business owners don’t realize how much it’s costing them—until it’s already ha...
You delivered the logo. The files were clean, the feedback was positive, and the project should’ve been wrapped.
But three weeks later, the emails are still rolling in:
“Can we just change the font one more time?”
...
“I had a dream last night about the homepage…”
“What if we added a third version o
In service-based work, clear communication and timely feedback are critical to completing projects on schedule and maintaining healthy business operations. But what happens when a client goes silent after delivery?
Whether the final files have been submitted or a key milestone has been met, prolong...
You signed your client up for six coaching calls — yet somehow, it’s turned into 60 hours of Voxers, 25 emails, and who knows how many voice messages. If your coaching containers are starting to feel more like emotional support groups than structured, results-driven programs, you're not alone.
In t...
Ever feel that knot in your stomach when a client asks for something outside the original agreement — and you’re not sure how to say no without feeling bad?
You’re not alone. As a business owner, especially one who leads with heart, saying “That’s not included” can bring up all sorts of resistance ...
You hit every milestone.
The work was solid.
The feedback was positive.
Then suddenly—silence.
If you’ve ever delivered a finished product to a client only to be met with crickets, you’re not alone. One of the most disorienting (and disempowering) things for service providers is when a project fee...
You sent the final work… and the client vanished. No email. No payment. No closure.
Let’s fix that.
In this article, I’ll show you how to prevent ghosting before it happens — with one powerful contract clause and a few simple communication habits.
So even if a client goes silent… you still get pa...
When client projects drag on for weeks—or even months—without a clear endpoint, it doesn’t just slow your momentum.
It drains your time, delays your income, and quietly chips away at your confidence.
What started as a simple scope of work can spiral into endless feedback loops, incomplete delivera...
You landed the big deal. Maybe it’s a 6-month retainer. Maybe it’s a three-year contract. Maybe it’s the dream 30-year licensing agreement you’ve been manifesting for months.
At first, it feels like security. Stability. Celebration.
But then, barely 30 days in, the client sends an email: *"We’re t...
You’ve done the work. You’ve delivered it on time. The client approved every milestone along the way.
And then… silence.
No reply. No feedback. No payment.
For far too many service-based entrepreneurs, this scenario isn’t hypothetical—it’s lived experience. And the worst part? It’s completely avo...
