12 Breeds of Client and How to Work With Them

Posted on September 29, 2007

A terrific and amusing article was published recently on Freelance Switch, a community blog for freelancers: 12 Breeds of Client and How to Work With Them.

As a freelancer myself, I find myself nodding in agreement and laughing out loud at some of the client descriptions. Here’s an extract:

“The Get-A-Good-Deal-Client:

Unethical get-a-good-deal clients are usually up for ‘no harm trying’ mentality that can see them trying to get out of paying for certain things, or at their worst, bullying you for more work or discounts…

The Low-Tech Client

The low-tech client looks confused and disoriented when discussing anything high-tech, calls rather than emails, wants everything to be faxed… The low-tech client will need to be hand-held through everything from setting up their email to opening up PDFs. Charge accordingly.”

So true. And isn’t it a snazzy blog design? I’m quite jealous. Thanks to Sophie for bringing this great site to my attention.
