A project is not about checking your emails each day. Not to mention overhead like cleaning up emails, invoicing, etc. @PM Marc, Make Way’s business advisor, is that your policies state how long the client has to do their ‘homework’ If they pass that time then you are still paid in full.

A client emails you in a panic and the tone is so urgent that you feel the need like it’s your own. Here’s a tip: make a 48-hour waiting period the standard policy in your business for all incoming requests. For these reasons, I have gravitated toward a “no rush jobs&# policy. Ah, the rush job. You drop everything.

I’ve happily signed up for all kinds of email lists. I recently had a discussion via email with someone regarding the CAN-Spam Act (US) and Anti-Spam Act (Australia). In the US it’s legal to sign someone up to your email list without asking their permission. They could have asked. I have a crazy-busy RSS feed.

anyone wants to be an affiliate and help promote, drop me an email via my site – shameless self-promotion happening here.

Check your email. Look at your email. Read that long chain email someone forwarded to you. Forward that chain email to all your friends. Write a detailed apology to the friend you sent that chain email to who asked you not to send stuff like that anymore. Send an email to your client. Check your voice mail.

Alright, well, I know he emailed me to let me know I had a broken link in a post. And I know he was interested in what that link led to, which made me think well of him, so I emailed him back. In less than 5 emails, in fact. This is perhaps my most important rule of thumb, whether writing books, blog posts, or emails.

Emails bombard you. You were supposed to deliver this project at 5pm and you’re almost finished but… A new email comes in. Add standard lead time to your policies, let people know right away that you won’t book them on the spot, and build your schedule so that it’s full for weeks and months to come.

Decide on your guidelines and stick to them so you have part of your procedures for life balance. In this context, I found it difficult to set and implement a cancellation policy. By their mere existence, boundaries such as a cancellation policy set the foundation for mutual respect between the client and consultant.

Things I didn’t get done that day, emails I meant to send, bills I haven’t paid, posts I haven’t written, product launch process – they all keep me awake in the wee small hours. The good part of waking up then is that I’ll often write whole blog posts or emails in my head, and they’re generally quite good.
