This makes for a heartwarming magazine article but I don't think it's good advice.
If you don't set boundaries with your clients, they will set them for you. Which means calling the CEO at 2 AM on a Saturday.
The sentiment of always respecting your clients is a good one, but allowing yourself to get roped in on issues that you shouldn't is a surefire path to burnout and losing money.
- mirceagoia 14y agoDepends on what kind of clients do you have. If you have individual clients then yeah, it may be a waste of time sometime. But if you have institutional clients (other companies), like this startup had (broadcast stations), then I think it's worth going the extra mile.
