Just how easy (or hard) do you make it for you customers to work with you?
On this week's TBOA, Rochelle and I talk about just how easy you should make it for clients to work with you.
Talking Points

Putting up hurdles for clients can be a good idea, but only if they're intentional
The types of product sales that should be frictionless, and the ones that shouldn't
When to require that clients jump through hoops
How to know when your marketing and sales processes are attracting the wrong kind of people
What to do when money and trust are not enough to get a client to make a change
What if your clients have a problem that they're embarrassed to ask for help with?
