February 22, 2017

•

SHOW NOTES

“Lets be honest, it’s our job to educate our clients” (0:28)

“Setting that sort of expectation has been life-giving because I am not checking my email at all hours of the night. I’m not running down to my laptop to respond to that late night email because the second that you start doing that, that expectation is built.” (5:57)

“Communication is such an incredible way to set the expectations from the get go and also to just set the boundaries” (9:53)

“Legal stuff scares us, but the dreaded or anticipated contract is an incredible way to set expectations.” (10:25)

“One of the biggest mistakes I see people making is, over-promising and under- delivering” (26:16)
