Learn how to spring clean your client relationships with our April Spark event

It’s my favorite time of year!

After a long, cold winter in New York, yesterday I spotted my first “cold-weather-be-damned, it’s-officially-spring!” dude walking around in shorts. I respect the doggedness of these guys, because they know how to embrace a fresh start. Freelancers can do the same.

Spring is the perfect time to give your business practices a refresh. For instance:

- Does your contract have a clause requiring a single point of contact?

- Do you always have your client communicate project changes in writing?

- Do you know how to manage “scope creep?”

Whether you’re trying to figure out how to get a client to pay up, or you just want to establish better modes of communication, our April Spark event is for you!
