Hi Halina,
I completely agree – with clients who have a “get to it when you can” attitude I always make us both commit to a deadline. If I’m writing it “when I can get to it”…I’ll be writing it in 2026. 😀
Thanks for commenting!

Hi Christina,
Well, you should know that *my* initial reaction after reading the first line of your comment was, “Uh oh, she found a typo in my post!” 😀 Oh, it’s so tiresome to be so hopelessly human, isn’t it?? 😀
Thanks for commenting!

I had a client who would actually not give me a deadline, and would say “There’s no rush. Whenever you finish is fine”, but that’s a recipe for disaster for me, so I would choose my own deadline and inform my client. “I will have it ready for you in 3 weeks.” Then, a day or two before the deadline, I would send another message, “I will have your project completed by tomorrow.”
