  1. Managing clients and projects Iain McPherson // Big Bite Creative

    @IainMcPherson

  2. Mr I need it yesterday “By the way, can you

    do that by tomorrow?”

  3. Mrs know it all “Could you just move that 2mm

    up and drop the font size by 2 points?”

  4. Miss I’ll know it when I see it “That’s not

    what I want, but I don’t know why”

  5. Mr multiple decision maker “That’s awesome, I will take it

    to my boss for approval”

  6. Mr cheap client “Can you do that tomorrow for £50?”

  7. 01. From my limited experience ...it will only take you

    5 minutes ...can you just move that up 2 pixels ...I’m using Internet Explorer

  8. 02. Don’t take it personally

  9. 03. Pin down the outcome Treating the symptoms not the

    disease

  10. 04. Know what you’re doing What is the problem What

    are the deliverables How do I know when I am finished

  11. 05. Time everything

  12. 06. It’s OK to say no

  13. 07. Know your worth

  14. 08. Pick your battles

  15. 09. It’s OK to fire a client

  16. Thanks :) @IainMcPherson
