Do You Over Promise and Under Deliver
A new client recently admitted to me sheepishly that she often didn’t get to complete a client’s work until the client called to see if it was ready. I admired her honesty if not her time management skills.

The Insider Secrets to Not Losing Your Shirt on your Client’s Next Project
My client Anna called me last week, completely frustrated, about an unfolding nightmare with her new client. Anna had recently accepted a new client who had an exciting project. They discussed what specific needs the client had, and Anna determined that it would fit in her schedule. She received a down payment for the work, and scheduled the time in her calendar.
How To Handle Customer Billing Snafus
Seriously, whether the client owes you the money or not is a moot point. Yes, you made an accounting mistake, but if the client agreed to pay you a certain amount each month in exchange for certain services rendered, and you have been under-billing that client for delivering those certain services, the client owes you the money, period.
The Discipline of Profitability
Profitability is no accident! In fact, profitability starts with a mindset. It also requires written plans, budgets, and talented management and employee teams to execute the plan. Without the mindset and the determination to be profitable, most companies will not achieve maximum profitability. I refer to this mindset and the action it inspires, the discipline of profitability.
10 Warning Signs That Prospective Client Is Not Right For You
In difficult economic times it is easy to let go of standards and take on a client who does not fit your vision of your ideal client. When few clients are in the pipeline it often looks attractive to take the ones that show up. When you do this you run the risk of having an angry client or worse one who is out a real energy drainer. Here are ten warning signs that tell you to avoid the client.

Monetize Lost Productivity

Profitability is the net difference between revenues and expenses. However, every little improvement to productivity has a direct impact on your profitability.
Which Client Are You?
Growth and profitability for your firm is less about acquiring and maintaining more clients, and more about strategic selection and retention. Many (most) firms grapple with this concept, as it appears counter-productive to expend energy in acquiring clients, only to let some of them go, and there’s always the consideration of the potential that a particular client may bring to the firm in the future. Unless clients are proactively managed through a client growth process, the value to your firm will be realized a lot more slowly and the returns are unlikely to be as high when you let the client drive the process. The resources that your firm needs to employ in order to acquire and service your clients, is also a key consideration in how you grow your client base.

How To Build An Optimum Mix Of Knowledge Workers And General Assistants
When do you consider outsourcing most profitable? This is an ambiguous question, considering the general notion that outsourcing by default is profitable. As evolution innately leads to more profitability, outsourcing has also evolved from just giving out all non-core tasks, to a more productive tool that brings in more meaning and profitability to your business. Such a facet of outsourcing is to look for optimally mixing outsourcing of tasks, to diverse assistants, consultants, vendors or freelancers based on the skills needed to complete those tasks, to achieve significant cost benefits. Let me put this in a single sentence, “how to maximize profitability by optimizing outsourcing of tasks.”
The Brand Profitability Cycle: How Your Brand Can Help You Make More Money and So Much More!
When I say “profit”, do you think about money? Most people do! Entrepreneurs are no different, and one of the most common ways to measure business success is by financial profitability… how much did you make last year versus how much you spent. When you’re looking at profitability in your business, you look at the return on investment. But what do you do when you’re measuring the profitability of a piece of your business that doesn’t just lead directly to money… like your brand?
Coaching and Psychological Styles: Adjust Your Approach!
Most coaches understand, intuitively, the need to adjust their approach in dealing with different types of clients, but quite often, these adjustments don’t come until it’s too late, and the client has already lost faith in the process. Using an assessment to determine a client’s Perceptual Style at the outset of the coaching relationship can shift the equation, giving the coach the tools he/she needs to connect with the client and speak that client’s language right away.
