Episode 113: Why Your Clients Are Giving You Less Work

Here’s one thing that all trades businesses have in common. 

If they lost their biggest client they would struggle to keep the employees busy. 

It’s more important than ever to be on your clients’ backs about giving you more work. 

Because the research shows that when you stop communicating with your clients… 

They start dishing out work to your competitors that would usually be given to you. 

But asking for work all the time can feel too much for some business owners. 

And that’s true. 

There’s a right and a wrong way to maintain relationships with clients. 

And to set the record straight, the guys sat down to record an episode on it.  

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN FROM LISTENING TO TODAY’S PODCAST: 

  1. Understand what happens to business relationships when communication breaks down 
  2. A better relationship between you and your clients 
  3. Consistent cashflow
