You’re so welcome, Ian. Your reply rather typifies the comments I’ve received from others via email, phone, etc. It’s frustrating to keep up with these changes, but there may be a few new things we like, too. Appreciate your comment! – Allison

Thanks, Allison!

as usual, you’re a step ahead in preparing and planning for what’s coming (whether we like it or not).
This post was akin to lighting that single candle rather than cursing the darkness.
Every change Facebook puts in lately tends to feel like somebody re-arranged your furniture during the day while you were away at work. A little explanation doth go a long way.

thanks again,
Ian

Comment on Need Your Input: Attracting Clients You Love by Allison

Thanks to Molly Walker of Walker Communications (www.mwalkercommunications.com) who emailed me this comment about “How do you attract clients you love?”:

Clients refer people they think well of. I find that referrals come without asking for them, BUT it is important to let people know when you have open time and would enjoy getting more work, and also letting your clients and others know:
–WHAT YOU DO
–WHAT YOU LIKE TO DO and
–WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR OTHER CLIENTS THEY MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT.

I find that clients often don’t realize WHAT ELSE you do if you don’t tell them and include them in your marketing. They think they know you, but they may not. Plus, it’s likely you are not the consultant they met; you may have developed many more skills over the months and maybe years since you first started working together.

But getting back to your question, I think this may be instinct. You know when you first meet someone if you are in sync with them, if you like them and if they respond to you. Sometimes you’re wrong, but not often. I think you need to continue to stay in touch with yourself, learn from good and bad experiences, and ask some or all of these questions:
–Do they listen?
–Do they answer your questions?
–Do they know what they want?
–Do they know when you are giving them what they want?
–Do they appreciate your ideas?
–Do they listen when you have a better idea?
–Do they encourage even better ideas?
–Are they positive?
–Do they have a work ethic?
–Do they care about the project?
–Are they inspiring?
–Do they appreciate what you do for them?
–Do they give you free rein or micro-manage you? (What is your own work style? If these are hot buttons for you, watch this carefully!)
…and many more.
