Arggh just get organised!! Please :)

So you've done all the hard work, made the cold call, talked your way in to the office, given your pitch, you've given the estimate/quote, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, .. ok you get the point.

So what is it?  Why do some clients leave you hanging?  I just don't get it, you're ready to go!

Well I do get it, cause I'm one that takes my time in doing things.  Sometimes its hard to figure out where you stand, and what's more, you can quickly make yourself from potential collaborator into whinny pain in the butt!  Thus quickly leading to never getting hired by them again.  Suck.

So your sitting by the phone waiting for it to ring.. hold on that sounds really sad.  So your doing your books, dreaming of all the future earnings your going to make, (that sounds better).  What can you do?  Well, you need to have some idea of what type of client you have and then you can act appropriately.


So lets break it down.

"The thinking client"
Yes they are still keen, but mulling things over, and over, and over.  You end up wanting to push them along, ringing them up and saying "Get on with it!!"


The "procrastinator"

The "too busy with too many things going on",

and the "I've changed my mind."
