How To Say “No” To Clients

The web design world is a place of limitless possibilities. As great as that is, as a web design service provider, it can be daunting and clients can expect the world of you.

In this presentation, Hans Skillrud, former owner of a 12 person web design and software development company (and now cofounder of the Privacy Policy generator company Termageddon) will speak on why saying ‘no’ to clients oddly makes your firm more profitable while significantly reducing the risk of burnout.
