You’re currently reading “Clients Don’t Get It, Do They?,” one of the entries in the Bright Launch collection of articles and resources.
Every freelancer must have had this experience at some point in their career: A client that’s becoming way too involved in running the project, or just not getting what you’re trying to convey. A recent article at Fiftyfoureleven takes a look at this client-consultant relationship, and how it should be shaped:
“Designers, developers, copywriters, anyone who works on the web, be it as a freelancer or in an agency, we are all consultants. We consult by offering our expertise to our clients and our bosses. Even employees of agencies are consultants, offering their expertise to their peers who have other expertise.”
“As consultants, we are responsible for providing our expertise to the client in order to provide solutions to what they are looking for. So when a client says or does something that makes you think they don’t get it or that they are getting too involved in what is your business, that’s a good sign to take a step back and figure out what is really happening.”
