Me and my partner run a small but globally oriented design consultancy.
One of the things we always try to do is to only work 3 days a week four clients. This we believe is a better use of time and money because we and our clients often need "time to think".
So far this has landed us some pretty interesting and large clients in some very interesting areas like robotics, AI, Shipping and for the VC industry and it has allowed us to focus more end developing the actual products and services rather than just producing.
- HenryTheHorse 9y agoIf I may ask you an unrelated question: since you mentioned you run a small consultancy, how do you manage your clients' expectations about working hours etc? In my experience (also running a small consultancy), clients expect at least 10x4, if not 8x5 coverage.
- ThomPete 9y agoSure. We charge days or weeks not hours that takes care of most of the problem. Second we are expensive which normally means we dont waste our clients time and they dont waste ours.
