Default Re: DO You Tell Your Clients if You're Subcontracting?
Hi,

I subcontract a lot as my skill set is so diverse...If you are going to have her work on client projects and interact with the client (ie. the client is going to see an email or get a call directly from her) than you should inform that client that your assistant/partner/whatever title you wish to bestow upon her, will be assisting you with their projects. If however, all work is going through you and the client will not see nor know the work is not 100% your own it isn't a big concern to introduce the to anyone else. Basically it is good policy to only introduce clients to someone else if they will be in contact with that person in some way. Otherwise you are going to confuse them.

That's my take on it. Go with your gut!
