Actually, this wouldn’t quite be the case for me. The truth is that I actually only have one consistent “client”, and he keeps on hiring me for different projects, which isn’t such a bad thing. However, it’s those other clients where, if I ever get the chance to land one, I hope to be able to show how valuable my services could be to them, and they’ll hopefully retain me on a long term basis in some fashion. So, I guess I do have the one repeat customer.

Mitch,
I’m guessing that if you tweaked what you were doing just a little, so you stayed on top of mind, you’d maybe get more repeat customers. Getting the good stuff accomplished is great, most important. Let them know you appreciate their business, that they are more than just a number.

True Heidi, but in my situation, I get good stuff accomplished, but don’t end up with returning clients because they never really get to know me as well as the other people do. But that’s okay; I’m surviving. lol

All goes back to the Golden Rule now, doesn’t it?

Do unto other as you would have them do unto you!

Thanks Mitch!

Beverly and I have the same book. And we do talk to each other. I think getting the job done better than expected falls in this same category. If your work was just so so, the rest doesn’t matter.

This was a very good article, Heidi. I think I read something along the same lines on Beverly’s site; y’all must have been talking to each other. I have to admit that I don’t do this well with the “upper” folks as much as I do it with the people I’m actually working for. I guess I don’t focus as much on the overall client as much as I focus on getting the job done better than it was expected to be done.

This is a great reminder to treat others the same way we like to be treated, we all like to feel that our money means something to the businesses we frequent and it’s a good policy to have in place within our own organizations.
