Approaching Clueless Clients with Sara Gates
As freelancers, we’ve probably all worked with clients who couldn’t pin down exactly what they wanted. Maybe they never had a clear vision for the project, or maybe they constantly changed their mind—and your scope of work. The experience can be incredibly frustrating. Yet, even these clueless clients need (and deserve) help from freelancers. In this episode, Wudan talks to content marketer and strategist Sara Gates. Before Sara started her freelance business, she did a bit of everything at a high-growth startup. She was hired for marketing and did it all: SEO, social media, email, content strategy, messaging development, and so much more. You can follow Sara on Linkedin. Wudan and Sara dive into how to approach clueless clients without costing yourself too much money, emotional energy or sleep.
