Run! While You Can Still Afford To!
The client, who works in finance, wanted me to market his vacation rental home on Facebook. From my experience, I knew this wasn’t the only thing he needed to market his home. I proceeded to talk with him about the value of a quality website, updated photos, and more.
He barely listened to me.
Client: “Yeah, I don’t have time for that. I just need to make some money quickly by marketing this vacation home on Facebook. Also, I need you to help me market this diner I just bought.”
Me: “Okay…”
Client: “Oh, by the way, my credit card is maxed out since I am paying for the food for the restaurant out of pocket. I need to make more money off of my vacation rental and this diner. But don’t worry, I’ll still pay you.”
Me: “Okay. Well, this is a little concerning. By the way, the website for your restaurant needs a lot of work.”
Client: “I just had that created! I guess that’s what I get for being so cheap.”
Eject! Eject!
