6 Tips for Setting Better Client Expectations
As an experienced business consultant I see issues with client expectations all the time. Businesses don't want to say ‘no' to customers during the sales process.

They want to say ‘yes' and get the new customer to say ‘yes' so they overpromise. Somewhere down the road, your customer will question the promises you made and start to wonder why their expectations haven't been met. The natural reaction to losing clients is to assume the problem was with them-they didn't give you enough time or enough budget and they wanted the world in return, right?

Many sales people seem programmed to think if they can overcome, handle or minimize the customer’s negative points of view that their customer will drop their resistance and the sales person’s goals will be achieved.
