Default Do You Have a Favorite?
Do you have a favorite client? If so, why is this person your favorite.

I was thinking about one of my clients the other day and I really enjoy working with her. She is clear and organized, she trusts my opinions about things she could do for her business, often using me to implement these things. She is ALWAYS looking out for me and using her connections (and she has many) to help me grow my business. She is a phenominal business woman and she is extremely appreciative for all I do for her. I want 20 more like her.

Hmmmm....I like all my clients. The one I'd say is my favorite right now (only because the other client that's really my favorite is at a real job right now and not working in her business) is a woman I call 'classy'.

She always has good input, asks the right question, thinks I rock!

She know the value she gets for her dollar so there's never any pulling of teeth to get payment. She also sent me a referral to another great business woman I love working with.

I have to admit I do have a favorite - although we so carefully hand-pick each of our clients they're all pretty fabulous. But our first client sounds much like your own favorite Tamika - she's the number one reason behind our own growth and she is just such an amazing person to work with. Also very much the antithesis of the micromanager so she makes the whole process very easy and fun.

She is so instrumental in our growth that we have kept her rate at nearly half of what we bring in new clients at - she's brought us that much business.

I can't say I have a favorite. I do have a special fondness for my first client though.

There are different things about each client (well most of my clients) that I really like. I have some that I like more than others but I can't think of one that I don't like....some of them have some irritating habits but I still like them.

I've had clients in the past that I didn't like and don't work with them anymore which was my choice in each instance.
